Retrospect 2004: Brigitte Miers

About the Artist

About her work
Versatile, colourful and honest in her use of different techniques, from aquarelle through tempera to collage: this is how the artist explores the opportunities offered to her, without copying old masters. Conflicts between colours lie at the heart of her creations. Colour as an expression of her inner thoughts, her work on the surroundings and the way these impact on her artwork.
