NMA (NANCY MARISA ARLT)<br />
Germany<br />
Berlin-based artist NMA first emerged onto<br />
the German art scene in 2004, following her<br />
graduation from the University of Arts in<br />
Berlin (UdK).<br />
NMA was raised in a city divided by a<br />
wall, having thus experienced both sides<br />
before and after the fall of the Berlin wall.<br />
Her art is heavily influenced by the city‘s<br />
new-found sense of freedom, a spirit of<br />
unlimited possibilities and a feeling of former<br />
restrictions rupturing, leading to limitlessness.<br />
<strong>The</strong> artist’s most recent long-term staple<br />
project, and one of her most compelling, was<br />
a compilation of paintings interpreting the<br />
vast assortment of musical pieces by world<br />
renowned composer Richard Wagner onto<br />
canvas, in honor of his bicentennial in 2013. An<br />
installation that was described by Wagner‘s<br />
great granddaughter Katharina Wagner as<br />
“extraordinarily successful” and “inspiring”,<br />
as well as “controlled conversion” and “highly<br />
emotional”.<br />
<strong>The</strong> inspiration for the two pieces <strong>The</strong> Source<br />
and Rhythm was the impulse, that special<br />
moment out of which music and creative<br />
processes in general evolve.<br />
