Fides Linien – Fine Artist
My artistic works engage with cultural and aesthetic constructs of 'femininity', exploring both its natural and artificially constructed expressions. Central to this exploration is the portrayal of women, which serves to amplify their presence and significance within the visual narrative of the 'feminine'. Different female roles and diverse spectrums of appearance associated with the 'female' and 'feminine' inspire my artwork.
​
In the majority of my artworks, particularly in my fibre artworks and Paper Couture, I explore themes related to fashion and design, such as adornment and concealment of the body. These concepts are particularly compelling to me because they are intrinsically linked to identity and gender constructs, as well as the sociocultural evolution of women within society.
Fides Linien – Interndisciplinary Art Consultant
In consulting sessions or workshops I train and mentor in the fields of Art and Aesthetics, Fashion, (Self–) Marketing, socio–cultural matters, as well as interdisciplinary projects.
​
I see myself as modern Muse: inspiring and motivating especially women and the next generation – encouraging them in their positive mindset, personal growth and fortitude.
​
I believe in progress through creativity, multidisciplinarity, innovation, independence and sustainability. Mindfulness, open–mindedness, versatile interests and authenticity are key elements of my personality.
