“For me, color is not what comes out of the tube. There it is material and its qualities must first be brought out. By looking, sensing and 'tasting' each color shade slowly emerges what you finally see on the canvas. For me it is not about expressing my mood, my subjectivity, my emotions on the canvas, but rather helping a color to appear in its broad spectrum. "

- Susanne Stahli

Susanne Stähli has long been concerned with the different expressive values ​​and the nuanced perception possibilities of colors. Over time, this led to a reduction in image elements such as line or shape. Above all in her large-format works, the viewer can experience 'that is in color'. She achieves the high luminosity of her pictures through a glaze-like layering of the paint.
