Joana Fischer—Visual Artist
Initiator, Curator, and Juror
​
Joana Fischer is a German-born artist who makes her home in Miami, Florida. She studied fine arts at the Münster Art Academy in Germany and continued her studies in Aix-en-Provence, France, on a study-abroad scholarship. Upon graduation she moved to Florida, where she lives with her husband and three children. Today she’s a full-time artist who has made a name for herself in the Florida art scene and has also held multiple exhibitions in her native Germany. She had public exhibitions in galleries and fairs in the US and in Germany and had museum appearances at the Baker Museum, Naples, FL, the Coral Gables Museum, Miami, FL, the Boca Museum of Art, Boca Raton, FL, the Art and Culture Center Hollywood, FL and the Kunsthalle Ravensburg, Germany.
Fischer’s delicate and intricate works combine drawing and painting, and are filled with technical, visual and conceptual juxtapositions and dualisms. The imagery in these collage-like creations reveals intertwined, connotative dream landscapes and explores environmental and existential themes. These invite the observer to roam freely beyond the canvas.
Fragments taken out of context and assembled together in a new creation: Urbanism and nature, inside and outside, specific locations and open areas, near and far, silence and commotion, superposition and exposure, resolution and desire, ease and self-absorption. With partially hidden details peeking out from behind, Fischer creates more than just visually complex and beautiful artwork—she also engages in narratives that inspire the observer to think, dream, discover, and revel in nature.
