Rebecca Bernau

Rebecca Bernau is a contemporary artist whose work delves into themes of identity and human connection. She merges digital techniques with the tactile qualities of hand-painted elements, exploring the balance between the tangible and intangible aspects of existence. Bernau’s creative process begins with digital painting, where she experiments with colors, shapes, and compositions. Once she has developed a concept, she transfers it to canvas using high-quality printing techniques and adds intricate layers of acrylic and oil paint to enhance depth and texture. Her artwork is marked by vibrant color palettes and dynamic forms, evoking themes of vulnerability and resilience. A central theme in her work is “Roots,” through which she examines the influence of past experiences on present identity, illustrating how history shapes who we are today. Born in Aachen, Rebecca Bernau currently lives and works in Munich.
