Humorous seascocks: Kaminka inspires with northern German art!

The Greifswald artist Katja Anke-Pense, known as Kaminka, conjures up a unique view of life on the Baltic Sea with her maritime works of art. As a coastal child, its creativity is strongly shaped by the surrounding nature. Whether fishermen, sailors or mermaids - their work shows characters with a pinch of northern German humor who is reflected in their popular motifs. Like nordkurier.de, Katja holds her bizarre ideas with fast strokes in sketch carved and prints. The bright blue of your prints is your trademark and symbolically stands for the maritime atmosphere that goes through your works.

Kaminka not only pursues traditional printing techniques, but also uses modern communication channels to make their art accessible to the general public. Due to the effect of social media, especially Instagram, she was able to win not only nationally but internationally customers. Above all, their unique postcard motifs, which are sent to Hong Kong and Australia, are very popular. Your works of art can also be found at good-aus-vorpommern.de where they are highlighted as particularly valuable products from the region. This combination of tradition and modern marketing makes Kaminka an outstanding personality in the regional art scene.

growth and creative development

With over 100 different motifs that are constantly expanded and adapted, Kaminka's works are more than just postcards - they are an expression of a constantly growing creative journey. A very popular motif is the cod series, which came from a family outing and is now considered a bestseller. This combination of personal history and artistic inspiration shows how closely your art is interwoven with her life. In addition, Kaminka initiated a partnership with the Greifswald potter Franziska Roth, which leads to new creative results such as cups and small ceramics. According to Katja Anke-Pense, this collaboration can develop many new ideas that are to be implemented in the future.
