The Fantastical World of Catrin Welz-Stein

Every human mind contains hidden rooms that house our ability to dream, imagine and embark on flights of fancy. These are the spaces where you can create freely in a shower of ideas. German artist Catrin Welz-Stein’s dreamlike digital art embodies such places and awakens them in delighted onlookers.

The two covers in our Free Your Mind series reproduce iconic works Welz-Stein created between 2010 and 2013. Here you can see her influences from classic children’s literature as well as surrealism and folklore. The artist uses old images and illustrations and combines them in fascinating collages, retouching, adding and removing elements to create something entirely new.
