Atelier Sandra Ackermann

My artistic work deals with the ambivalence of being.

It depicts a feeling of lostness,
in a world in which reality and truth drift ever more apart.

‘Deaf in Silence’

I painted ‘Deaf in Silence’ in 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea.
The painting directly relates to the conflict.
The image of the soldier on the coat is painted after a found newspaper photo documenting the conflict.
The woman’s coat has this highly alarming red colour which is also making a connection to the colour which predominately creates the old Sowietunion Flag.

The woman is just standing there, watching with no active role.
This symbolises the female role in so many world conflicts which a almost exclusively male conflicts.

The title refers to the unbelievable inaction of the world in the face of this break of international law and agreements.
