Ana Bathe (Germany)
Visual Artist
Ana Bathe (born in Belgrade in 1987) is a multi-disciplinary autodidactic artist currently living and
working in Berlin. Drawing inspiration from various forms of art and by assuming the roles of subject,
photographer, painter, sculptor, set and costume designer in her work, the artist is able to produce
works which give her philosophies a visual body – often unconventional in form and matter.
While being irrevocably shaped by childhood experiences of war-trauma and subsequently as a refugee,
her works do incorporate these aspects but move beyond them and address societal issues like ever-
present consumerism, the conception of gender or the psychological consequences of an expanding
technologically interconnected life. Aiming to intrusively stimulate the audiences emotionally and
cognitively, the artist’s objective is to directly evoke a lasting communicative exchange.
Her work has been published and exhibited throughout Europe.
