In this episode of Berlin Art Stories, we explore the creative journey of Laura Bruce, an artist who has been part of Berlin’s art community for over 30 years. Laura is renowned for her captivating graphite and colored pencil works, which blend meticulous detail with evocative depth. Her graphite drawings are known for their atmospheric quality, often exploring light and shadow with stunning precision. Meanwhile, her colored pencil compositions bring a vibrant dynamism to her art, balancing abstraction with intricate line work. Laura’s art is often described as a meditative exploration of perception and emotion, combining technical mastery with thought-provoking themes. Her work has been exhibited internationally, cementing her reputation as a significant voice in contemporary art.
In this episode, we sit down with Bosnian-born, Berlin based artist and comedian Mila Panić, whose fearless creativity blurs the lines between art and stand-up comedy. From her personal experiences of migration to broader narratives about identity and belonging, Mila uses humor as a tool to dissect cultural taboos and confront uncomfortable truths. She bridges fine art and comedy, using stand-up as a subversive tool to tackle difficult subjects like armed conflict, diaspora, and linguistic challenges.
