Christina Krah is a visual artist whose abstract paintings explore the subtle yet resilient presence of nature within urban environments. Drawing from her experiences in cities like Berlin and Barcelona, Krah’s work examines how nature coexists with, disrupts, and transforms the built world.

Inspired by poetic images such as roots breaking through concrete, trees sprouting from abandoned structures, and vines crawling up facades, Krah’s work captures the friction and harmony between human architecture and living systems. A hallmark of her practice is the use of vibrant, self-mixed colors reflecting the emotional intensity and richness of natural forms reclaiming urban space.

The contrast between permanence and impermanence is central to her artistic inquiry. In Krah’s vision, buildings are temporary gestures. Nature, by contrast, is a patient witness that adapts, waits, and returns. Her compositions express this interplay through bold chromatic choices, shifting perspectives, and an intuitive rhythm.

Her current project at GlogauAIR focuses on the quiet persistence of the organic amidst the brutality of city life. It meditates on how nature reclaims space and reasserts itself, even in inhospitable environments. She continues to paint on canvas while experimenting with ways for her work to extend beyond traditional wall formats, inviting viewers to interact with it from multiple perspectives.
