Meet the Artist
Characteristic is the loose painterly brushstroke, which is always lost, but keeps the focus on the depiction. During the online residency, Langer would like to focus on the development of their paintings and visualisation of inner worlds in an open-ended and process-oriented manner.

GlogauAIR Project
For me, 2022 was the year in which I looked for inspiration outside. In June 2022 I did a painting performance in the port of Hamburg and portrayed people visiting a small port snack bar. Another project in 2022 was a portrait project where I portrayed female musicians who deal with counterculture. In the online residency 2023 I would like to focus in the development of my painting and visualization of inner worlds in an open-ended and process-oriented manner.
The framework will be that I continue to deal with the topic “group”. It’s been with me since I’ve been painting. Characters create relationships in space on the canvas, a narrative often emerges that says more than I initiated.
