Born in 1983 in Bregenz, Lake Constance, Austria
Lives and works in Los Angeles, USA
凯瑟琳娜·奥尔施鲍尔1983年生于奥地利布列根茨康斯坦茨湖，目前生活工作于美国洛杉矶。
绘画开始于艺术家在狂热状态下创作的速写和素描。在处理无意识的欲望时，她运用了超现实主义手法，创造出融合了人体、物体、动物和形式元素的构图。通过扭曲视角和比例，奥尔施鲍尔在表现和抽象之间来回转换。其作品中梦境般的画面以富有表现力的笔触加以渲染，并通过清晰的分层制造深度。奥尔施鲍尔将这种流动的趋势应用于对文艺复兴、巴洛克以及浪漫主义时期作品的改造，并解构它们的主导叙事。通过识别这些作品中潜在的反常与倒错，并将其转化为感官性空间，奥尔施鲍尔重新诠释了这些杰作。
