Bettina Charlotte Radatz
It's Just a
Thought
An Exhibition of Paintings, Ceramics and Sculpture

| "The Whale's Dream" |
An
exhibition of paintings by this German-born Madeira-based artist. Her art has
turned more into the abstract and sometimes metaphysical. Her special ability
is intuitive painting in a gestural
expressive
way.
Bettina Charlotte’s career as an
artist began after a long life of exploration. Although she has traveled around
geographically too, Berlin/ Germany had been her base for 54 years – in 2013
this has changed as she decided to move to the Portuguese island of Madeira.
Before starting her artistic career
Bettina Charlotte has explored different professions: she travelled the world
as flight attendant for Lufthansa, she learned to be and worked as professional
photographer, studied adult education and worked with adults for many years,
was self employed and worked as systemic life coach in Berlin, Germany – these
professions have given her a wide horizon of different elements of life.
Because of her constant drive to be creative, art has always accompanied her during
times of other professions and in 2013 she finally decided to work as full time
artist when she moved to the island of Madeira to be part of the local artist
community.
Perhaps because of all this
together–getting to know so many earthly professions–her art has turned more
into the abstract and sometimes metaphysical. Her special ability is intuitive
painting in a gestural expressive way – she calls it “The Art to Listen to Your Heart” which
she also teaches in workshops in Berlin/ Germany and Funchal, Madeira.
