life and work

After she had processed mostly ambiguous and fate-related narratives in her work, which she continuously collected, at some point she used the monastery engraving as an extended technique in addition to painting in her work. “The results are unconventional and peculiar, they take you into a world that at first appears pleasing and then turns into a steep incline. From a bundle of found objects, mostly from the Internet, but also from films, biographies or pieces of music, stitch by stitch works are created that are irritating. "

Marie S. Ueltzen was already active in various artistic fields in her life. She is a painter, was an actress in low-budget films (Fehrfeld Studios), fashion designer, is a poet and illustrator. “A diverse mix that she also reflects in her art.

Earlier is behind

After a month's work stay in Saigon (Vietnam) in 2015, she wrote on her story earlier is behind , which was published in 2016 by Wohlfein Verlag.

“Despite her greatest fear of flying, the artist Marie S. Ueltzen first made a test flight to Paris , only to actually get on a plane to Saigon a few months later. Dealing with her own deep fear does not end with the description of the flights she has gone through, because she wanders through her past with a dissecting look and remembers experiences with which she often grimly amused and just as deeply saddened.

The child's gaze into the barrel of a loaded shotgun shortly before it is shot, growing up in the forester's lodge, the stubbornness of growing up, the mother animal's balancing act between married life and the art circus, the little Godzilla under her own skull or avoiding wearing rabbit costumes are just things some stories about friendship, love, pride, flight and rituals, God, death and children, about resistance and kindness, fear and courage, yesterday and today.

This story is an exciting key to further understanding the very personal works of an artist who has never subordinated herself to the mainstream. "
