The artist Marita Tobner

The mixture of formal perfection and seemingly pure elegance as well as a pronounced love of painting characterize the works of artist Marita Tobner. The painter creates snapshots against the backdrop of the insights she has gained into everyday life; she skilfully combines trivial things to create her very own new arrangements. Her style is unmistakable: Draconically and in perfect composition she directs the viewer's gaze to manifold aspects of human existence, their nature and their interconnections and contradictions to and among each other. This view on the origin of her creative points connects many of her works. All motifs live from the unique representation of an instinctive controversy between calm and dynamics.

Tobner does not see herself as a classical painter, her invigorating painting opens up much more to the viewer: in her works she plays with the visible and the hidden at the same time. She combines floral elements with figurative ones and thus creates a lifelike, mostly colour-intensive picture composition. Marita Tobner, born in 1961, lives and works as a freelance artist in Ulm. She is in demand at international art fairs in Switzerland and Italy and has been mentioned in art projects in New York in the meantime.
