Claudia Terstappen
She has lived and worked in Germany, Great Britain, Spain and the US. Her artistic work focuses on the interrelationship between religion, superstition and science in relation to place, culture and time.
The main inspirations for her work have been voyages to Brazil, Colombia,
Canada, Japan, the US (Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Utah), Iceland
and Spain. These destinations were chosen for their traces of ancient and
modern belief systems, mythical stories, holy landscapes and spiritual
thinking. Therefore work and travel have always been joint elements in
her life. In her recent exhibition "Sacred Places" in Kyoto she contrasted
very colourful man made altars (Spain, Japan and New Mexico) with sacred
landscapes of the Navajo Indians (USA) and holy mountains from Spain and
Iceland.
