Description

I created this picture during my clinical placement as part of my art therapy degree. I realised then that mandalas are a really good way for me to let go of stress and simply switch off. The whole thing came about very spontaneously, without any plan. I just started and let myself go with the flow. Time and again I thought, ‘Right, it’s finished now…’ but then I wanted to carry on painting and add even more details. Somehow I just couldn’t stop because I was enjoying it so much and was completely in the flow. The whole piece is inspired by the idea of consciously taking time out, pausing for a moment and taking a deep breath. It’s that moment between movement and stillness, when you reconnect with yourself.

Vanessa Marscholek

In her figurative painting, Vanessa Marscholek explores issues of identity, self-determination and female freedom. At the centre are female figures whose expressions oscillate between strength, vulnerability and independence. Her works are to be understood not so much as concrete depictions, but rather as emotional states that manifest themselves in postures, gazes and colour fields.

Her painting is characterised by a sensitive handling of oil as a medium, through which intimacy and presence unfold simultaneously. Figures emerge and assert themselves within the pictorial space without being clearly defined. They remain in motion, open to interpretation. This creates a tension between visibility and inner experience, inviting viewers to reflect on their own notions of freedom and identity.

Vanessa Marscholek has been studying Art Therapy (BA) at the Medical School Hamburg, Campus Arts and Social Change, since 2023 and is currently in her sixth semester.

From late 2023 to early 2026, she volunteered at the Habibi Atelier in Hamburg, where she was involved in the conception and organisation of exhibitions for charitable purposes. In this role, she collaborated with over 40 Hamburg-based artists and supported, amongst others, the Sternenbrücke children’s hospice (2024) and the Löwenhaus children’s and youth centre (2025).

She lives and studies in Hamburg.
