The artist Birgit Krah uses clay to produce artistic objects that create intimacy through their apparent simplicity.

For her, these objects often possess a beauty that we overlook in the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Her works are abstract and play with the associations of their viewers. Do I recognize a drainpipe, a pile of coal, or a stack of mozzarella cheese? One can never be sure.

What remains is a clear artistic attitude in which the idea takes precedence over craftsmanship and personal expression over perfection. Coincidence and imperfection are a welcome part of her artistic work.
