Brigitte Yoshiko Pruchnow

Brigitte Yoshiko Pruchnow is a painter based in Munich, Germany, who paints primarily with acrylic on canvas. She also likes to draw to experiment with different papers and techniques including ink, pencil, pens, pencil, collage, etc., which transmit her Japanese heritage. In her work, Brigitte is mainly concerned with perceiving and seeing things. She hopes to sharpen the senses of the viewer by looking at her work, especially through the play of light and shadow. She is interested in objects that move or reflect a lot of light, so there is a lot of contrast, like water, metal, glass, etc. Trying to capture a very fleeting everyday moment throughout the slow painting process, Brigitte wants to raise awareness of this moment.
