Education

Von Puttkamer studied architecture at the Academy for Fine Arts in Budapest and then painting at the Academy for Fine Arts in Münster.

Career

Von Puttkamer is a figurative painter. Her work features hazy, sometimes blurred images that are cast in a melancholy light. Her pictorial language integrates Color Field painting, a casually expressive style, as well as the coarse appearance of fresco painting, The distance she creates between her imagery and the outside world evokes an "iconology of the interval" (Aby Warburg). Inner and outer worlds merge to form an interspace where subjects and their representation are ever in a state of flux.
