"I create my art from real emotions, and hope that you find your own within it."
"The female protagonists convey a sense of calm and serenity as they move between reality and fantasy. The portrayed youthful characters seem to be awakening from a dream, or perhaps even stuck in one."
— Galleri Heike Arndt DK, on selected works
Profile
Benedicte Ambjerg is a self-taught Danish artist living and working in Berlin. Her figurative paintings explore the emotional terrain of womanhood — vulnerability, inner strength, anxiety, and loss — rendered through intimate female figures in restrained, contemplative atmospheres.
Having lived across countries before settling in Berlin, Ambjerg came to painting in 2022 and has since committed fully to her practice. Her work finds beauty in fragility, giving visual form to the feelings that often go unspoken.
