About this artwork
Here I painted a perfectly ordinary subway station with people going in and out – along with the everyday urban environment. I really like this little subway station and had wanted to paint it for a long time. The quirky, small, and brightly lit entrance building gives me warmth and a feeling of coming home. The painting was created on a self-primed wooden panel. The wood grain is still visible. I made a preliminary sketch with markers. Then I painted…
the picture with oil paints. In this painting, I captured the vibrant energy of an urban evening. With oil paints, I realistically depicted the interplay of light and shadow to make the moment between day and night palpable. It is my homage to the pulsating life of the city, which is told in every detail – from the people moving about to the warm lights that symbolize hope and connection.

« 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.
