THERESA GREGOR

I am a visual artist as well as a stage and costume designer, with a background in both theatre and painting. After studying in Venice at the Accademia di Belle Arti and at the Mozarteum in Salzburg, I developed an artistic practice that merges the theatrical with the pictorial, creating spaces where scenography and visual art intersect.

My current body of work revolves around the motif of the swan - a creature rich in symbolism, embodying transformation, elegance, and quiet drama. These swans inhabit dreamlike compositions, framed by patterns, stars, stripes, and geometric structures reminiscent of stage sets, curtains, or costume silhouettes.

Painting, for me, extends the stage. It captures a moment between movement and stillness, between figure and abstraction, between narrative and presence. My work invites the viewer into a poetic space where symbolic imagery and theatrical atmosphere converge.
