Eckdaten
Kunst in der Architektur und in der Landschaft bedeutet das Berücksichtigen und Unterstützen der natürlich gewachsenen Umgebung, mit ihren Notwendigkeiten und langfristigen Bedingungen, das Schaffen von Aufmerksamkeit, ein Sensibilisieren und Erfinden.
Ob im Kontrast oder im Konsens, es bedeutet ein Zusammengehen mit der vorhandenen oder geplanten Architektur und dem Menschen.
Orte schaffen, die lebenswert sind.
Vita
Claudia Okonek
is an artist working internationally and living in Berlin. .
She has always viewed her work from an interdisciplinary perspective.
As a result of years of exploring the relationship between space, human perception, colour, and light, in several media,
she can freely express the profound ways in which our senses shape reality.
The artist began her career studying painting and sculpture, which, along with a love of jazz and jazz-dance, formed her artistry's backbone.

Whether working in photography, architectural projects, or landscape architecture Claudia Okonek’s art touches the essence behind the visible.

For her, her work is a crucial means of helping viewer feel the space and environment where they spend their daily lives -,
a way of breakup routines in thinking and action, sometimes through showing the abstract concepts behind.
