I am a visual artist and work abstractly on paintings, sculptures and illustrations. My work is playful, and the self portrait I have submitted draws on themes of queerness and femininity.

Kirsten Hemrich works on both large scale oil paintings and mixed-media based artists books. Her work is influenced by post painterly abstraction. She is interested in visually exploring the transient nature of life in her paintings.
