NATURAL IMPRESSIONS
The 64 artists from 22 different nationalities selected for this exhibition not only enrich our consensus on artistic expression and cultural perspective but also expand our understanding of nature and its representation in the arts. This reflective approach challenges established conventions, allowing for diverse interpretations and representations of the world. It awakens human consciousness to the source of inspiration that the capacity to imagine represents, encouraging the audience to reflect on their relationship with the world and recognize the importance of art as a profound connection with the intrinsic essence of humanity.

CHARLOTTE SCHMID-MAYBACH
Los Angeles, California
She engages with landscapes,
both natural and urban, employing
an interdisciplinary approach that
combines photography, textiles, and
assemblage. In her process, she backs
her photographs with interfacing and
utilizes machine embroidery to sew
onto them, seamlessly integrating
the threads with the photographs
and giving rise to a novel creation:
photographic tapestries. Through
sewing, she immerses herself in the
photograph, and the introduction
of thread transforms the images
into something more dimensional
and textural. Thread acts as a
transformative element in her work,
ultimately causing the finished pieces
to resemble fabric. The threads blur the
boundary between what is real within
the photograph and what exists beyond
the frame, blurring the line between
reality and imagination.
