Jen Weissenbacher
is a painter and sculptor from the Ruhr region. She describes her style as "magical pop realism" – a combination of figurative design, magical imagery, and elements of pop art.
With her works – often relief-like or with sculptural textures – she explores the complex relationship between humans and nature. Neon colors, rainbow nuances, and strong contrasts give her paintings, sculptures, and reliefs a haunting visual presence that interweaves reality and fantasy.
