Lexia Hachtmann (*1993 in Berlin) is a British-German artist. She completed her Art and Design Foundation Diploma in 2013 in Brighton and returned to Berlin to continue her studies in Fine Art Painting at Universität der Künste Berlin.
Here, she obtained a Meisterschüler degree in the painting class of Prof. Mark Lammert in July 2021. Lexia Hachtmann is alumna of the 2022 Goldrausch Künstlerinnenprojekt and went on to study a Master of Fine Art (MA) in Painting at the Slade School of Fine Art, UCL London for which she received the DAAD Grant.
She lives and works in London, UK. Working in both figurative oil painting and printmaking, Lexia Hachtmann's work deals with conceptions around miscommunication, identity and social hierarchies. To her, the area of the canvas presents a space on which to comprehend, reenact and visualize universal feelings of isolation, intimacy and longing.
She is engaged in the motives that point to the thresholds; the boundaries between the private and public realm. This could be a physical and/or emotional space.
She aims to retain a certain ambivalence in her chosen subjects so that they may speak to our current and complex times by using fragmented, cropped, blurred, awkward and/or heavily enlarged images. In this way notions of both the fragmentary and the monumental are important trajectories in her work.
Lexia Hachtmann's paintings function like film-stills, paused in that very moment just before or after something has or was about to happen. Hinting at both the past and the future simultaneously, memory and longing as well as fact and fiction are important approaches to her practice.
