The inspirational artist: Maria Lassnig

Maria Lassnig (1919 –  2014) was an Austrian artist known for her painted self-portraits and her theory of "body awareness"In the 1950s, Lassnig was part of the Hundsgruppe ("Dog Pack") group.The works of the group were influenced by abstract expressionism and action painting. Though Lassnig began her career painting abstract works, she always created self-portraits. In 1948 Lassnig coined the term "body consciousness" to describe her practice. In this style, Lassnig only depicted the parts of her body that she actually felt as she worked.As such, many of her self-portraits depict figures that are missing body parts or use unnatural colours.
