Works by Raffael Bader screen nightly from the City of Perth Northbridge Piazza Superscreen in the Fringeworld exhibition LIGHTBOX24.

“In my paintings, which are largely characterized by landscape, I consider my view of a world full of tensions while these hold the world together. I pursue a nature that consists of all the elements that surround us, as well as us humans.”

Leipzig-based visual artist, Raffael Bader, graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts, Leipzig, Germany, in 2019. He grew up in the south of Germany and lived in the north for a while until it brought him to the east. The change of location, which is also reflected in his longer stays abroad (Australia, Asia, and Latin America, among others), has a decisive influence on his work. Baderʼs paintings deal with his view of a world full of tensions, while these tensions hold our world together. In 2020 he began exhibiting internationally, including in Switzerland and the USA.
