Nicola Barth, born in Mölln in 1966, currently resides and works near Frankfurt am Main. She earned her master's degree in German Studies at JW Goethe University in Frankfurt.

Originally aspiring to be a writer, Nicola soon abandoned the pen in favor of the paintbrush, seeking new forms of expression. Words were no longer adequate to describe the profound and enduring metamorphic processes occurring in non-obvious realms.

"Non-representational painting has become my language without words. It resonates with me because I am documenting worlds and expanses where languages are spoken that we do not (yet) know. My gaze is always directed towards the depths, beneath, above, and within worlds of experience that elude the obvious. Therefore, my language must also emanate from the depths of the experience of being—an alternative, open form of communication that is apprehended through different senses. It is a language of impression, expression, and frequency, devoid of naming, evaluation, or classification."

In addition to exploring transformation and shape-shifting, her work delves into themes of language and space, intertwined with questions of identity, alienation, individual fragmentation, and one's place in space and time. Her paintings can be perceived as fleeting visual glimpses that provide insight into a temporally and spatially confined stage of an ongoing developmental process.

"My artistic journey navigates the interstices of existence, where opposites merge and ambivalence prevails. It unveils my perspective into an imperceptible world. I delve into states of transformation and the intermediate spaces where things exist in neither one state nor the other. My fascination lies in the ambiguity and convergence of different states, where absence and presence coexist.

Painting and drawing, primarily in graphite and oil, are supplemented by three-dimensional artworks and digitally processed photography (Spacetime Metamorphoses, 2021). The content adheres to the same principle, remaining as abstract and surreal as her paintings."

She herselfs says about her work:
When everything is loose and in constant movement, everything reacts with everything else,
everything finds itself constantly in a process,
there is nothing really finished,
and when time and space are only fixed ideas,
then deception and change
are confusion and chance
It remains to stopp an d make visible.
My analog answer to this is painting/ making art.„I see my abstract paintings as something that is in a permanent process.“

"There is indeed a world behind this world! And it´s constantly moving. As a philosopher without words, I try to make milk glass permeable“.

Nicola Barth, female painter, lives and works near Frankfurt am Main. She studied literature and switched from wiritng to painting 25 years ago
because „ language is unambiguous, is controlled by the mind and raises us to a conformal level. Painting, on the other hand, deviates from the norm. It leads from the depth into the depth of an experience of being, it is another, for me more open form of communication, which is grasped with other senses and leaves more scope and freedom. Here it is more about experiencing and not understanding.“, she sais.

In addition to transformation and permanently metamorphic processes, the focus of her work is the theme of language and space, accompanied by questions of identity, the alienation and defragmentation of the individual and its location in space and time.
Painting and drawing, mainly in graphite, acrylic and oil, are complemented by three-dimensional works and digitally manipulated photographs. The content follows the same principle and is as abstract and surreal as her paintings.

Her works have been on show in numerous curated individual and group exhibitions in Germany, Italy USA, Switzerland and 2021 at the London Art Biennale. She has been nominted for various art award an has received the Artfacts Performance Award for Strong Artfacts Rank Growth Trend in 2020.
