    A day at the sea.
    Through Corona became that drawing a much stronger meaning.
    The seagull in art symbolizes travel and homesickness, but also freedom and borders. Over the past year, we've lost a lot of what we took for granted: being close to other people, physical contact, getting out in the fresh air, or traveling whenever you want, wherever you want, however you want. The painting speaks about the desire to be able to go back to the sea again, to feel the fresh wind in the hair, to be fearless, to listen the screams of the seagulls. And it speaks also about the desire to return to the old life.
  • About the artist

    Brita Seifert, Sorceress with pastel and colored pencil

    In every work she tries to incorporate a recognizable emotion, often things from daily life with a certain expressiveness that is highly relevant
    to the fantastic, erotic and magically realistic images. Brita's work is mainly inspired by music, travel and personal experiences.

    Brita Seifert started drawing with pencil and paper in 1980, she first drew models for three years before she was admitted to the academy
    for graphics and illustration in Leipzig, where she was a student of Prof. dr. Heinz Wagner and Werner Hennig.
    From 1988 to 1989 she also attended the Academy of Visual Arts in Berlin. From 1989 to 1992 Brita Seifert lived in Italy and
    was inspired there by Leonardo Da Vinci and Albrecht Dürer, among others, but also by contemporary painters such as Bruno Di Maio and Walter Girotto.
