Elke Foltz
1990年出生於法國,現居德國柏林,畢業於法國土魯斯第二大學,獲得應用藝術與平面設計學士學位。

其作品探索平衡的尋求,並著眼於人與人之間的聯繫。Foltz將來自大自然的鮮豔色彩與有機形狀相融合,元素相互交織,有時甚至互相擾亂,創造出如生態系統般的抽象構圖。創作靈感源自瞬間感受和逃離渴望,呈現出抽象景觀的氛圍。她利用墨水、油彩和顏料在畫布上重現周遭的色彩,並通過圓形構圖和生動色彩表達自發衝動,同時保留空白區域的寧靜感。

2024年1月,Foltz參加Blank 100藝術駐留計劃,期間創作一系列大型畫作,使用墨水和顏料捕捉葡萄牙聖特奧托尼奧的環境。2024年11月作品在Weserhalle的藝術拍賣中展出,由Matthias Arndt策展。

Born in 1990 in Lagny-sur-Marne, France, currently based in Berlin, Germany. She received a Bachelor's degree in Applied Arts and Graphic Design from the University of Toulouse II, France.

Her work explores the search for balance and the connections between individuals. She combines vivid colors inspired by nature with organic shapes, allowing the elements to overlap and sometimes disrupt one another, creating abstract compositions that resemble an ecosystem. Foltz draws inspiration from fleeting moments and a desire for escape, resulting in pieces that evoke abstract landscapes. She recreates the colors of her surroundings using ink, oil, and pigments on canvas, balancing spontaneous impulses—expressed through circular compositions and vivid colors—with the tranquility of blank spaces.

In January 2024, Foltz participated in the Blank 100 art residency, where she created a series of large canvases using ink and pigments to capture impressions of her environment in São Teotónio, Portugal. Her work was also featured in a November 2024 art auction at Weserhalle, curated by Matthias Arndt.
