Cold Comfort is part of the Headless series. These works explore moments when one is completely absorbed in the act… when the mind goes still and the body takes over.
The headless skier embodies precisely this state. When skiing, there’s no room for brooding – only movement and speed. You are both highly focused and completely free. The missing head thus becomes a symbol of this letting go… of trust in one’s own body.
Aileen Clausager
Aileen Clausager, born in 1999, is an international visual artist from northern Germany whose expressive painting explores the space between the human figure and abstraction.
At the heart of her work lies the depiction of the human body and portraiture. Using bold, vibrant colours and a dynamic interplay between naturalism and abstraction, she strikes a fluid balance between precise observation and imaginative interpretation.
Her current artistic practice is a personal expression of her identity – sometimes ‘headless’.
As an artist, Aileen Clausager often finds herself daydreaming or losing touch with the present moment. Her series visually express the feeling of ‘being headless’ – an existence beyond the boundaries of rational thought. As a daydreamer, Aileen explores the concept of separation from the mental and rational aspects of the self. The series invites the viewer to reflect on their own moments of mental digression, in which the body remains active whilst the mind is free.
Her works are not only recognised in her home country but are also gaining an ever-growing following across Europe. Furthermore, her works are exhibited internationally in various properties of the Meliá Hotel Group.
