Marcel Asendorf
Marcel Asendorf is studying painting at the University of Fine Arts in Essen and was awarded the Weser Elbe Foundation’s Encouragement Prize in 2024.
His tutors include Tim Trantenroth, Nicola Staeglich and Markus Vater.
The moment I apply paint to the canvas, I begin a dialogue with what I am creating. Using contrasts between warm and cool tones – sometimes quite stark – I aim to create a mood and translate it onto the canvas. I am not necessarily concerned with showing what is visible. Rather, I wish to depict the space in between, the subtext, and make this perceptible to the viewer.
Although I am very clear in what I do, I also experiment with various supports, media and figures. There is a vast space between figuration and abstraction that I wish to explore.
