About
Christina Hohenwarter
Her artwork is characterized by her minimalist, natural style. To translate the core themes of her art, freedom and connection, into an abstract painterly language, Christina uses linear textures and organic, transparent shapes and layers.
Many of her works use color palettes of earth and green tones and are presented in beautiful floating frames made of different types of wood.
Her process is guided by these sources of inspiration that surround her in the Palatinate region where she lives. The realization of her visions in the form of certain compositions, shapes and colors follows intuitively.

ARTIST BIO
When she set off on a cycling trip through southern Europe in 2017, lasting several months, Christina’s artistic journey began, albeit only recognizably in retrospect. What initially seemed like an escape from the system then turned into a personal journey and the discovery of one of her most important values from then on: freedom.
Her travels to Colombia inspired her not only by its incredibly beautiful and inspiring landscape, but also by its rich tradition of art and craftsmanship. It is a place where she sees her creativity blossom. With her paints in her travel backpack, she paints in the most diverse places in nature: In the rainforest. On the beach. In the mountains. On rivers. In the desert.
Filled with all these impressions, Christina decides to move to southern Germany, to the Palatinate. The Palatinate Forest became her source of inspiration and she set about exploring her own artistic signature through intuitive painting.
The birth of her first child then marked a profound transformation for her and art became an expression of her deepest longings. The more Christina explores what she longs for in the hustle and bustle of everyday life with two small children, the clearer and more focused her art becomes. Her own style begins to take shape.
What she strives for in life is now also reflected in her painting: calm, harmony, gentleness, authenticity, naturalness and minimalism.
In her paintings, she depicts the values of freedom and connectedness in an abstract way. She shows them as components that are mutually dependent and fertilize each other. Christina’s style shows root-like textures that are intended to characterize the connection to nature and organic, transparent forms that radiate a certain lightness and freedom.
Christina now exhibits locally and internationally. She has presented several paintings in an exhibition in Madrid.
