Vesta Magdalena is a contemporary figurative artist exploring the complexities of the human experience through hyper-realistic portraits and evocative scenes, while addressing themes of identity, intimacy and transgression.
„[Vesta Magdalena]’s art is an austere exercise and quiet meditation embedded in a fabric of spirituality and eroticism. A search for traces of the glowing core of the self, the unspeakable and the self-surrender in surrender.“
(Jan-Philipp Frühsorge: Les Danaïdes.
In: Les Danaïdes, exhibition catalogue,
publ. by Christian Berst, Paris 2022, S. 24)
