About this artwork
The picture shows the Köhlbrand Bridge in Hamburg. For the underlying shot, I took a harbor ferry towards the bridge. The bridge is one of the most striking elements of Hamburg's skyline and is due to be demolished soon. As a child, I walked across the bridge with thousands of other Hamburgers when it was opened in 1974. As a Hamburger, I have a connection to this structure and wanted to paint this bridge before it was demolished. In terms of painting,…
this was a challenge, as many of the elements depicted are very fine, the bridge's ropes, for example. While painting, I realized that concrete is not always gray. Painting the wild sky was a joy for me! The picture is made of wood, a primer, an underpainting in pink and light blue, and oil paints in the finest gradations. The painting brings freedom and space into your rooms - it could be the start of a journey.

« The process of color-sensitive, soft, slow painting contrasts with the speed and indifference of everyday life. I take part of my surroundings and make art out of it. »
The perception of Ulla Kutter's environment is shaped by the focus on disharmonious compositions and their aesthetics. The German painter portrays the broken, chaotic, and shining aspects of everyday life in the city. Through her images, she creates possibilities for different levels of perception. Kutter paints using the traditional techniques of old Dutch masters, using oils on canvas.
