About the Artwork:

“Clouds like the petals of a rose,

Open slowly and disclose

The golden heart of the moon;

The waves grow soft upon the sand,

The wind dies down upon the land,

Beauty and silence weave a tune

Out of the petals of the moon.”

– ‘The Song of the Moon’ by Alice Corbin Henderson

About the Artist:

(Artist Bio)

Katharina Ortner is an artist and graphic designer based in Germany. She loves to create ever new shapes inspired by the beautiful and sometimes bizzare forms of nature. Her art is deeply influenced by music, japanese pop culture and the old masters of Art Nouveau. She conjures up images living in the borderland between reality and dream, mostly calm, sometimes sad. In her artwork you will find beings in a trance-like state, maybe just awakening or still in a deep sleep, but all inviting you to follow them into their realm outside of reality.
