Sarah Bogner's paintings oscillate between figurative representation and ornament, conveying great lightness and light-footed wit.
The dancing, intertwined bodies bear the heads of horses, sometimes with additional tentacles, extra necks with heads and hats and they like to smoke. The transparent application of paint is reminiscent of frescoes, the forms evoke numerous associations from art history. They open up at first glance and yet they allow for the most diverse levels of meaning. They are absurd, surreal, childlike, playful, mischievous and tremendously self-confident - in-between creatures in every respect that make us smile and impress us with their theatrical grandeur.
