Lives and works in Munich and partially Chiemsee in Germany
BIO //
Vicky Anna Lardschneider (born 1994 in Munich, Germany) is an artist living and working in Munich and at the Lake Chiemsee. Her practice explores natural materials and their transformation in relation to time, perception, and place. Working across painting, installation, and photography, she often uses earth pigments and found natural materials, which she collects and processes herself. Her work moves between abstraction and material-based imagery, focusing on light, texture, spatial experience, and the subtle thresholds between the visible and invisible. Shaped by a background in architecure and an interdisciplinary practice that includes body awareness and psychodynamics, her work investigates how environments, materials, and atmospheres influence human perception. Lardschnei- der has exhibited internationally and in Germany, including solo exhibitions at the Orangerie Engli- scher Garten in Munich and group exhibitions such as at the Bavarian State Ministry, the Galerie der Künstler (BBK Munich), and the Naturbiennale Südpart. She is currently represented by SKM Gallery, Leipzig.
Her practice is rooted in long-term, process-based research and material engagement with specific places and environments.
