Femmy Otten
Femmy Otten brings reliefs, drawings and paintings and sculptures together in mysterious wall installations that evoke the suggestion of a completely unique myth. Her work evokes associations both formally and symbolically with Greek and Etruscan antiquity, Renaissance frescoes and, at the same time, wooden sculptures by Stephan Balkenhol, with the occasional touch of abstract art. The recognizable references are effortlessly combined by Otten into a unique symbolism: mythological creatures, abstract emblems, domestic elements and absent gaze come together in its atmospheric iconography.
