Claudia Limacher (b. 1967, Germany) is a painter whose work reflects a profound connection with nature and its quiet yet persistent power. Now based in Lucerne, Switzerland, she creates impressionistic landscapes that explore the intricate relationships between forests, lakes, mountains, and the lives entwined within them. Deeply inspired by the ever-changing play of light and the movement of water, her paintings capture the shifting atmospheres of natural landscapes with both sensitivity and intensity.
Her practice is marked by impulsive, intuitive brushwork and delicate gestures that convey imagination and emotion. Limacher layers acrylics, oils, spray paint, pure pigments, and pastels to form dreamlike visions that blur the boundaries between reality and the surreal. Her innate synesthesia is intrinsic to her artistic language, allowing her to translate sound, movement, and sensation into color, rhythm, and texture. These works open a meditative space — a pause from the accelerated pace of contemporary life — where abstract passion leads into organic, otherworldly forms.
Her evocative paintings are held in private collections across Europe, the United States, and Asia, offering collectors and viewers alike a unique window into the harmonious interplay of light, nature, imagination, and human perception.
