Natascha Pötz is a Berlin based artist who works with drawings, ceramics and textile.

“My artistic home is drawing and collage, which intertwine playfully. Starting from these pictorial worlds, I research the haptics of different techniques and materials that allow the images to grow out of themselves and generate new dimensions. This is how ceramic reliefs, tapestries and objects made of clay are created, which can sometimes also be used in everyday life. These works in turn flow into drawing and collage, so that the change of craft practice triggers the movement of a perpetuum mobile. I am interested in the effect of the different working methods on my pictorial constructions. The physicality of the working process is therefore always central to my artistic development. When my pictures become too stable, I look for a door to open: Each material challenges in a different way. That appeals to me, it loosens the view and thinking and focuses the doing. In terms of content, I am preoccupied with simple situations - space, routines, everyday objects. Viewpoints, encounters and perspectives make micro-events visible and the everyday terrain a stage.” - Natascha Pötz
