wilder förster

Wilder Förster is a contemporary visual artist based in Germany, whose multidisciplinary practice explores the intersections of nature, memory, and the passage of time. Born in Leipzig in 1986, Förster studied fine arts at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig, where he developed a fascination with organic forms and landscape as both subject and symbol. Working primarily in painting, sculpture, and experimental printmaking, Förster’s works are characterized by luminous palettes and delicate, layered textures that evoke both the fragility and resilience found in the natural environment.

His art frequently incorporates found materials and botanicals gathered on long walks through the forests and meadows of his native Saxony, resulting in pieces that serve as meditations on transience and ecological interconnectedness. Förster’s exhibitions have garnered critical acclaim across Germany and Europe, with recent solo shows in Berlin, Munich, and Rotterdam, and his work is held in numerous private and public collections. Through his evocative visuals and thoughtful installations, Wilder Förster invites viewers to consider their own place within the ever-evolving tapestry of the natural world.
