Andrea van Reimersdahl is based in Berlin and was born on the German-Dutch border, in a region with traditional textile production. Since graduating as a master student of Prof. Katharina Grosse, she has concentrated on painted and printed textiles as canvases, mainly using screen printing and pigment painting.

Van Reimersdahl sees shadows of figures, things and herself. From sketches, she develops a diverse world of organic forms that develop a life of their own in nuances of color.

Her drawings and cut-outs are scaled, mirrored and collected as templates for painting and screen printing. The use of color is an intuitive process that plays with transparencies and overlays. Her impulse is to soften contrasts and explore intermediate tones. These works reference the human silhouette and interact with our surroundings in ever new ways.

she has received grants and prizes from the Hans and Charlotte Krull Foundation, the Stiftung Kunstfonds, the Kulturwerk der VG-Bild Kunst and the Reclaim Award. In 2023, she received a residency scholarship from the DKB Foundation at Schloss Liebenberg. Her works are included in private collections.
