Painting without black. The mostly large-format abstract canvas works are sprayed with paint and are applied in many thin layers.

“In her painting, Kallrath deals with the process of consciousness of color and the idea of ​​trivial optimism. Here she completely dispenses with the “non-color” black. In her pictures, Kallrath splinters the perspective of a transcendent fleetingness that hardly leaves a white area untouched. The symbiosis of expressive color palette and "all-over technique", which rarely allows the viewer to perceive the picture as a whole, invites you to leave your thoughts and interpretations free. "
