Creating Peace 5th serie
The exhibition “Faded Faces” consists of graceful and unusual portraits of women, who are seemingly from the past although young modern women are portrayed. 
Patrizia Casagranda, living in Krefeld Germany, produces expressive paintings by creating the illusion that the portrayed is in one’s reach and almost graspable. 
By combining different techniques, such as, painting, graffiti collage, stenciling and typography the art pieces look striking and mysterious, they appear strange yet familiar at the same time.
Patrizia Casagrande’s time spent in North India, and the experiences gathered there manufacture themselves impactfully in her art.
The focus of this exhibition is her fifth series “Belief”, in which the topic of religion presents itself in her works. It consists of six portraits of individual women from different religions in which the artist focuses on the similarities between them.
Her aim is to provoke thought about the changing of time.
The German-Italian Patritzia Casagranda was born in Stuttgart in 1979. In 2002 she graduated with distinction in Design from the FH Niederrhein and afterwards visited art academies in Nizza, Ravensburg and Trier.
Since 2015 she has been working as an independent artist and in a short time has managed to show her pieces in and out of Germany. So far, she has presented her exhibitions in France, Britain, China and this summer at the Venice Architecture Biennale.
 
Here and now 4th serie
I regularly work in the poor regions of North India, where I have the privilege of meeting and getting to know some very remarkable and special women.
Every morning we would share a cup of tea and many thoughts. The tribal women are proud beautiful women who with great skill daringly collect goods that were discarded as waste.
Junk and garbage to some – but the means of existence for the collectors and their families. Only a tiny gap between life, survival and disaster. All actions and their lives concentrated on the “Here and Now”.
These women’s virtues and perseverance taught me to trust in “the Tomorrow” and gave me an astonishing joy of being. The portraits of these women are titled, “Kiran, the Light”, “Sunder, the Beautiful” or “Laxmi, the Rich”. The titles could be interpreted as dreams –to me they represent the tribal women’s attitudes towards life. The women focus on the present, the positive aspects of life and solidarity.
