The paintings of brigitta Westphal are many-sided and fascinating
mixture of impossible visions, of ecstatic abductions, of imaginative
pictures and illusory incantations holding moments and thoughts.
Imaginations surround reality. Poetic fingerprints transfigure
circumstances and mood into pure mirages. The source of her
artistic inspirations results neither from visions nor from a utopian
longing, but from a sober perspective, from a strict and at same time
sensitive analysis of humans and of society, and from a survey of the
relationship between human and nature and of existence’s meaning.
