»My art blends figurative elements with abstract painting. Vibrant, organic colors and flowing forms define my style. Currently, I’m focused on object art and installations, exploring new sculptural possibilities, especially with glass. The choice of materials and their arrangement in space are crucial to the impact of my work. In addition to painting on various surfaces, I also enjoy experimenting with collage, printmaking, drawing, and writing.«
Vahdeta Tahirović, born and raised 1997 in Graz, Austria as first generation of Bosnian migrants. Works and lives in Halle (Saale) and Leipzig, Germany.
