Sie war schon immer ein wenig verträumt

Die Arbeit entstand in Vorbereitung auf die Gruppenausstellung "Notes on Shared Realities", an der die Künstlerin im Mai 2024 beteiligt war. Die Ausstellung beschäftigte sich aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven mit diversen Aspekten der Intersektionalität. Ceric beleuchtete hierbei die Neurodiversität. Mithilfe einer protagonistischen Identifikationsfigur sucht sie die Auseinandersetzung speziell im Bereich der Aufmerksamkeitsstörungen - etwa ADHS - welche noch immer vor allem bei weiblich gelesenen Personen nicht erkannt werden. Die Protagonistin ist daher eine verträumte junge Frau, die stellvertretend eine andere Perspektive in unserer Welt wahrzunehmen und zu agieren eröffnet.
Information: Aufgrund eines künstlerischen Forschungsaufenthalts in Wien können die bestellten Arbeiten erst im Oktober 2025 versendet werden.
Antonia Ceric
has been studying Fine Art at the Offenbach University of Art and Design in Offenbach am Main since 2022, with an interdisciplinary focus on sculpture in the class of
Mike Bouchet. Alongside her artistic practice, she brings an academic background in neuroscience – a combination that significantly shapes her work.
In her painting, she employs classical oil painting techniques, in particular the traditional grisaille method, which she uses especially for portraits. Her aim is not merely to capture outward resemblance, but to visualise inner states, atmospheres and mental spaces. Her paintings are precise observations of expression, gestures and interpersonal dynamics – at once analytical and poetic.
Although traditionally executed on canvas, Čerič approaches painting sculpturally: she does not view the picture as a flat surface, but as a spatial experience that actively engages the viewer. Perception – in both its psychological and physiological dimensions – plays a central role in this. Her affinity with brain research and the theory of perception is subtly woven into the composition, colour scheme and visual guidance of her works.
In printmaking, too, Čerič experiments with various forms of intaglio printing. Alongside classical etchings, she develops unorthodox drypoint engravings, in which she uses electric rotary tools to create complex textures and an almost drawing-like immediacy. These works are characterised by a particular lightness and rhythmic density.
