Noëmi Manser is a visual artist whose practice spans painting, drawing, sculpture, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Her work investigates the transformation of intuitive imagery into structured visual form, exploring themes of balance, metamorphosis, and the tension between inner experience and material reality.

Influenced by Surrealism and artists such as Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo, Manser works with intuitive drawing as a starting point, allowing images to surface without predetermined narratives. These initial drawings serve as raw material that is later translated through painting, where time, layering, and deliberate composition play a central role. Through techniques such as glazing and repeated layering, she builds depth and luminosity, creating images that feel suspended between introspection and shared psychological space.

Rather than presenting fixed meanings, Manser’s work holds ambiguity as an active element. Her paintings function as sites of containment, spaces where complexity, contradiction, and emotional intensity are given form without becoming illustrative or didactic. The result is work that invites reflection, allowing viewers to bring their own associations into dialogue with the image.

Alongside her studio practice, Manser engages in collaborative projects across music, digital media, and storytelling. These collaborations reflect her interest in art as a connective process, one that operates across disciplines while maintaining a strong visual core.

Her work has been exhibited internationally in New York, Mexico City, Miami, Paris, and Switzerland. Selected exhibitions include Her Time Is Now at Donna Karan’s Urban Zen Center in New York, curated by ArtLeadHER; a solo exhibition during Zona Maco at the Four Seasons Hotel Mexico City; and commissioned murals for Art Walk Holistika in Tulum. Manser has collaborated with MeWe International on projects presented at LACMA, including For Freedoms Congress, and on a children’s book centered on creativity and storytelling. In 2021, she received the Daniel Lipszyc Award for her Connecting Brains project.
