Okka-Esther Hungerbühler
Artist Okka-Esther Hungerbühler works with both painting and sculpture to explore different themes. In her paintings, Hungerbühler returns to the shape of the „princess dress“, which she uses abstractly, and depicts rooms as colored sketches of interiors. Her sculptures are creature-like, with a highly simple body shape composed of decorative materials.
Okka-Esther Hungerbühler has exhibited work at Kunstverein Dresden, Dresden; Schwartzsche Villa, Berlin; and mumok Wien, Vienna, among others.
