ABOUT
Theresa Rudzki is a multidisciplinary artist working across painting and photography. Now based in Milan, Italy, she was born and raised in Berlin, Germany.
After studying business and working in marketing, she chose to pursue her passion for photography, becoming a full-time fashion photographer.
Her path led her to London, where she quickly established herself, with work published in Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, ELLE, L’Officiel, among others.
In 2021, she returned to painting, seeking a deeper form of expression beyond the limits she encountered through the camera.
“In photography, I search for beauty in authenticity—in personality, in the fleeting moment. My work is shaped by the interaction with my subjects and team. Yet I began to feel the need to go deeper, beyond what a camera can capture. I wanted to express a feeling rather than document a moment.
Abstract painting offers me that freedom. It allows me to reflect on memory and emotion in a more intuitive way. The language of my work is coded, leaving space for interpretation. I believe we are drawn to art because we recognize in it something we are already searching for within ourselves. My aim is to create a dialogue between the viewer and the painting—where there is no right or wrong.
My paintings begin where my photography ends.”
Theresa’s work seeks common ground in an ongoing exploration of reflection, empathy, and the beauty of imperfection.
