Laura Bauer-Schnitzler Discusses 'Portrait of a Straight Line' and 'Weed' Series in Singulart Interview

publication · 2026-10-14

In an October 14, 2026, interview with Singulart Magazine, artist Laura Bauer-Schnitzler shared insights about her artwork, including Portrait of a Straight Line and Weed. She described how Portrait of a Straight Line employs a horizontal line to evoke depth and a trance-like experience. Dream Wall epitomizes her artistic approach with its subdued hues and textural elements. As a psychotherapist focused on trauma, her profession informs her transition to abstract forms. Weed serves as a metaphor for inclusion and aesthetic significance. Her nature-surrounded studio enhances her creative process, and she prioritizes sustainability in her materials. Featured in her profile are three notable pieces: Wenn der Geist wandert/A wandering mind, Wachsein/Awake Within, and Zeitweg/Through Time.
