Born 1993 in Detmold, Stella Schwake studied art sciences in Berlin and Bologna, Italy, and European media studies in Potsdam and London, UK.
In her studies she dealt with the history of images, expression through architecture and produced video works critical of consumption and the system.
Her Bachelor‘s degree taught her the theory of practice, her Master‘s degree the practice of theory.
Stella‘s artistic works are defined by intense colourings in symbiosis and contrast. Her art defies conventional categorisation, moving fluidly between Expressionism and ultra-contemporary art.
She explores new forms as symbols of fundamental change, placing emphasis on the process of creation, expression, and meaning-making. Through her bold use of colour and form, she investigates innovative and intuitive modes of representation, engaging with themes such as interdisciplinary feminism and the ever-present threat of ecological collapse.
Stella Schwake lives and works in Berlin.
