Heike LIN Triebel was born in Thuringia, she is now based in Berghausen, Germany. She began her artistic career very early: when she was just 10 years old she participated in her first exhibition. At the age of 17 she began a course of studies dedicated to art: she studied graphic arts at the University of Erfurt and she studied painting and sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Mainz. Her artistic production is inspired by the great European masters and by the culture of the "old" continent. Despite this, her studies abroad have allowed her to enrich herself and to learn about new styles and traditions. Heike’s art is like a mirror: it reflects what is happening in the world and the evolution of contemporary society.
