Andrea Portmann

Hello there!
I do mostly handmade collages and handwritten drawings with a special twinkle which make you smile...when I do my collages it almost feels like magic - it happens - the little paper snippets start to communicate on the paper which is a kind of stage to me.
I love to dance between words and images and to combine the two in a fresh way.
Sometimes I'm also outside doing street art with trees or asphalt freckles.
As an educator I teach creative writing techniques at an Art School and German as foreign language for migrants who participate in a learning program in a restaurant.
Let's say I'm working very diverse ... but what connects all my activities is the belief that surprising things can be discovered in everyday life and that our imagination loves to get nourished by humour.
