nahtwerk.papierkunst in Bergen auf Rügen - art on the sewing machine
In the center of Bergen auf Rügen, not far from the portal of St. Mary's Church, there is a very special kind of studio-gallery: nahtwerk.papierkunst by Ute Matthiesen. What is created here is an art form that is difficult to put into words - and that is precisely its appeal. Ute Matthiesen uses a sewing machine to sew fine, visible seams into paper, creating sewn watercolors, collages and exclusive art cards.
Architecture meets paper art - Ute Matthiesen's special techniqueOriginally coming from the field of architecture, Ute Matthiesen has developed her very own collage technique: The seam as a creative element. Visible, precise and expressive, she combines layers of paper to create images that surprise both in their style and their effect. This combination of craftsmanship and artistic expression makes the works truly unique - and coveted souvenirs from the island of Rügen.
Visit the studio gallery - experience art up close
Visitors to the gallery often find Ute Matthiesen in the middle of her work. This is not an obstacle, but an experience: a quick ring of the doorbell is all it takes and the visitor is warmly welcomed. This combines the enjoyment of art with an authentic glimpse into a lively artist's workshop - something that is rarely found on the Baltic coast of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Anyone visiting Rügen and looking for an original art venue off the beaten track will find it here.

Inca
📍 Bergen auf Rügen
Inka's art is repeatedly praised by viewers for the positive, soothing aura that the individual works have. Vibrant colors, lightness and brilliance characterize Inka's paintings. Inka's art is known for this in Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Tokyo, Miami and at www.Galerie-Inka.de. Inka's art is repeatedly praised by viewers for the positive, soothing aura that the individual works have. Vibrant colors, lightness and brilliance characterize Inka's paintings. The viewer is immediately drawn into a world of joie de vivre, flowing energy, power and dancing colors. This world of joy invites you to be touched, to be infected by its lightness, to linger in its brilliance. And this is exactly how one visitor described it at the vernissage on March 2 at the Bergen City Museum on Rügen, where the solo show "Inca: Retrospective of Half a Century" runs until May 28, 2024: "I went straight home after the vernissage and did nothing else there but sit quietly on a chair and enjoy these wonderful energies that I had soaked up from your pictures." The fact that Inka's artworks usually have an uplifting effect is partly due to the clear, strong colors. On the other hand, it is also due to the fact that Inka connects herself with positive, healing forces during the painting process and thus impregnates these energies into her works. For Inka, painting is an act of joy, sensuality and gratitude. Inka's works have been shown in 56 exhibitions in Germany, Switzerland and Italy, as well as in the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum and at the ARTBOX Project Miami 3.0. At KUNST:OFFEN 2024, Inka is participating in the collective exhibition at St. Spiritus in Greifswald, as well as at the Bergen City Museum. Inka's studio is also open all year round for interested parties by appointment. Please send your request to info@galerie-inka.de
