Since 1976 Karoline now lives and works in Berlin, Germany. She studied Arts at UdK Berlin and made her masters in 2006 in the class of Professor Dieter Hacker Karoline Kroiß is an Austrian-German painter who has exhibited her work nationally.
She primarily depicts women and girls lost in their thoughts or pictured in contemplative landscapes, applying an atmosphere of calm and quiet to each piece through a muted colour palette and soft light. The works of Karoline Kroiß invite its viewers to pause, let the world slow down and seize an opportunity to simply let go for a moment.
The artist employs acrylic paint to create snapshots, which upon closer inspection turn out to be surreal situations. The patterns slowly escape the women clothes to connect with the background, which in turn leaks over and merges with the women. Yet, they are oblivious to this, for they are so emerged in their own thoughts and dreams.
