Theresa Franziska

Theresa Franziska Jaenisch is a German visual artist who captures the "daily madness" of existence through a lens of whimsical surrealism. Drawing on her formal training in graphic design at Bauhaus Dessau and art education at the University of Leipzig, she creates humorous paintings that reinterpret classical masterpieces with a quirky sensibility. Now based in Vienna, she is a self-taught illustrator who finds inspiration in plants, food, and her travels. Her works are uniquely narrative, frequently featuring original character backstories penned directly onto the back of the canvases, bridging the gap between fine art and storytelling.
