Footprints - Oil on Canvas 31.5'' x 39.5''
For Viennese artist Hedy Maimann, the process is all. Her intuitive method channels her immediate impressions and emotions directly to the canvas resulting in softly layered, dense mixed-media compositions that stand as physical manifestations of her spiritual and aesthetic ideas. Working primarily in oils, Hedy uses both representational and non-representational imagery in combination with icons and symbols relating to her spiritual beliefs in her harmonious compositions. In this way, her works communicate not just her inner psychological life, but also a larger vision pertaining to the peaceful effects that art can induce in the individual and society. As a child, she escaped the constraints of a rigid upbringing and the pressures of cultural difference by committing herself passionately to all forms of visual and performance art. She now concentrates most exclusively on her visual art practice through which she has found the perfect vehicle for expressing her calm and soulful aesthetic philosophy. Hedy Maimann’s work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Austria, Italy and New York.
