Artist Statement
In the Light of the Moment:
Colors That Tell Stories
My art is a dialogue between light and shadow, between tangible reality and the infinite dimensions of the imagination. It is born from my passion for capturing fleeting beauty and sharing it with others. For me, the magic of the world lies in the details — in the glowing colors of a sunset, the sparkle of water, or the quiet contrasts between brightness and darkness. Preserving these ephemeral moments is my way of celebrating life in all its depth and intensity.
In my paintings, neon hues, metallic tones, and layered textures merge into vivid worlds that balance energy and stillness. Dark backgrounds serve as a stage where color and form reveal their full brilliance — a symbol of how light penetrates the dark and makes beauty visible. My process is intuitive and experimental: layer by layer, I create works that express emotion and tell stories. They invite the viewer to pause, shift perspective, and immerse themselves in their own inner perception.
My art is also a search — for clarity, for balance, for the unseen. It reflects my personal journey, shaped by the challenge of letting go of control and embracing freedom. Every brushstroke is an act of intuition, every drop of color an exploration of the unknown. My works celebrate the relationship between human beings and nature — the fragility and strength of life. They are an invitation to discover the hidden and to find the magic of the moment in the smallest of details.
"I dream of a world in which art celebrates the joy of life and the spirit of discovery. A world in which art connects people, inspires bold choices, and shows that every change holds the potential for a creative new beginning."
From Inner Strength
to Artistic Radiance
Amidst the vibrant chaos of raising four children, Cornelia Seuss found her artistic calling. Where others felt overwhelmed by everyday life, she discovered painting as both a refuge and a powerful means to express her inner world. Inspired by the calm moments she found within the whirlwind of motherhood, she gradually placed creativity at the center of her life.
From an early age, her childhood was shaped by a deep connection to nature, which she explored alongside her father through the lens of a camera. These formative experiences taught her to see the beauty and symbolism of the natural world as a reflection of the soul — a perspective that later became the core of her artistic identity.
A turning point came when she joined a circle of artists who regularly met in the natural landscape of the Dachauer Moos to paint outdoors. This experience transformed her understanding of art and life. The magical interplay of light and shadow in this unique environment became her inexhaustible source of inspiration. Her distinctive technique — combining neon colors and metallic pigments on dark, layered backgrounds — reflects the constant dialogue between luminosity and depth. Each painting tells a story of change, inner strength, and the mysterious connection between people and their environment.
Today, Cornelia Seuss’s works are more than visual compositions — they are messages. They encourage reflection and invite viewers to rediscover their own inner landscape in harmony with nature. Her art captivates not only through its vibrant intensity but also through its emotional depth. With growing recognition from collectors and art lovers alike, she is committed to bringing new artistic impulses to her hometown of Dachau and sharing her work with an international audience.
Born in 1972 in Dachau, Germany, Cornelia Seuss continues to draw inspiration from the light and natural beauty of the region she calls home.
