EXHIBITING MY SOUL My artworks show my process of practicing art such as painting with acrylics and watercolours. It is a search for spending time with yourself and expressing emotions and truths you ďŹ nd through doing that.

To my mind, any kind of art is a natural energy that helps to be centered and anyone can practice it - be it music, dance, painting or else. Therefore you can see my personal journey in my paintings and I want to share this experience of feeling reanimated.

Through my works, I seek to encourage the viewer to pick up their original passions and interests and experiment to experience the unknown.

ON FIRE Acrylic on paper 30 x 42 cm This painting is full of symbolism and displays very clearly how I see myself. Firy hands, creating lots. Strong but feminine, trying to reach further outside my boxy german head, reecting myself and what is going on around me. All in all very vivid and alive, quite pelicular but in its own order surrounded by blue, the colour of freedom.

REFLECTION Acrylic on canvas 8,27 x 8,27 in 11,26 x 16,54 in 8,27 x 8,27 in This triology of abstract paintings is about feelings and was created during a live music jam session among friends. It is one of the very first works I created here in London. It displays freedom and flow that creating something new can bring about.

LOOSE | TIGHT Acrylic on paper 30 x 42 cm 30 x 42 cm These works are on relationships between people - friends, lovers, family and how we reflect on it.

People can be bound together tightly, and like a fabric becomes stronger by connecting the strands, so can relationships strengthen people. The background of my work ‘Tight‘ is layered and a large scale woven fabric is indicated in the way of applying the darker orange.

‘Loose‘ on the other hand refers to the freedom everyone needs naturally to be a healthy individual and that enables a person to move further.

ALONG Acrylic on Paper 8,27 x 11,69 in These abstract paintings are about feelings and were created during a live music jam session among friends. A friend and guitarist participated in the painting on the very right side and I love the thought of art and creating being a healing process anyone can and should practise.

Therefore it is about creating as a personal experience as well as sharing that process with a friend.

ABOUT THE ARTIST Tabita Cargnel comes from Cologne, Germany and studied Architecture at TU Darmstadt. Painting, architecture and classical music are big components of her life. Tabita Cargnel is known for her photography. Her trademark is a very natural and expressive style of portraits. The photos mainly depict models, but also interiors, buildings and urban spaces. „As an architecture student at TU Darmstadt, a home of

Bauhaus and Art Nouveau, I came to appreciate how the principle that “form follows function’’ can lead to beauti-

ful and honest design. It is the multifaceted nature of the field that first attracted me to architecture, even while my career in photography has flourished. And so am I longing for experimenting and expressing myself through painting as well. “
