About this artwork
The painting, titled "Antischoke," playfully references the artichoke—both linguistically and in content. The depiction is based on the plant's form, but subtly distorts it to open up a new level of meaning.
At its core is the idea that there are moments in life when one wants to escape external pressure and consciously disagree. The title "Antischoke" alludes to the need to say no – without justification, without resistance, simply as an expression… of a personal emotional state.
The work invites identification, without judgment or guidance. It offers room for interpretation and addresses an everyday, yet often unspoken, need: to set boundaries, to take oneself seriously—especially on those days when "no" speaks louder than "yes."

Credentials
- Works on commission
Jennifer Zimmermann, a trained screen printer, primarily uses oil paints, acrylics, and wax crayons in her paintings. Her impulsive style allows her to play between dense layers and quick, direct gestures, exploring the boundaries between figuration and abstraction. Unmistakably influenced by street art, she brings to life the aesthetics of the urban and the reality of everyday life. Her works convey silence while simultaneously allowing the unsaid to be seen, often with subtle social critique and a distinctive perspective on social realities.
