Becoming increasingly blurred, 2025 Big thanks to @alejandraponcianoart for the opportunity to show my art work at the Exhibition La Madriguera @enlamadriguerastudio in Mexico City 💖 Mia (she/her) goes shopping and reflects on the challenges of being a woman. At a time when economic insecurity and patriarchal expectations are shaping lives, I am concerned with the complex dynamics that have developed between individual experiences and social structures. My work explores the parallels between everyday concerns and systemic injustices. It shows how financial pressures and social norms shape our dreams and expectations and highlight the discrepancy between childhood expectations and reality as an adult woman. The specific expectations placed on women and the resulting inner conflicts are highlighted. The connection between Mia's personal thoughts and the larger social and economic issues illustrates the complexity of modern female existence.

So happy to have been part of the 5th edition of @rea.fair thank you for the great art prize @artstedcom ❤️‍🔥 Endless thanks to @vvvikingaaa for your support, beautiful text and curation 💖 LIKE A MOTH TO A FLAME Like a Moth to a Flame reflects on childhood memories of gazing out car windows - moments of daydreaming when the future felt full of possibilities. The note shaped arrangement of car windows captures this sense of innocence while hinting at the fragility of adult expectations.
 Inspired by Alice in Wonderland, the work explores transformation and illusion. Like Alice, we navigate a world shaped by algorithms and endless promises of self-optimization and illusion of choice. Quick fixes and curated realities blur the line between freedom and control, leaving us searching for meaning in a hyperreal world.

Ricklin × Koch REST FOR SANE Finissage & Künstler:innengespräch Sonntag, 26. April, 16 Uhr Mit Andrea Ricklin und Anouk Koch, geführt von Anna Konstantinova 💆‍♀️Kommt vorbei 💆‍♀️ Fotos: Ralph Kühne @anouk.koch @andrearicklin @ricklin_x_koch @annaknstn @edmunds.miriam #benzeholz #benzeholzmeggen #kunstinluzern

SHARP.VELVET.GLITTERING RED (2025) captures the moment just before everything breaks open, a charged pause between readiness and exhaustion. Inspired by the Queen of Hearts, the work reflects an inner voice that keeps pushing: sharper, brighter, better. What appears intense becomes a surface stretched over fatigue, a loop of anticipation without release. It hints at how ambition turns into self-pressure and how easily we become the Queen we try to resist. about the exhibition: Emotional Cargo by @ricklin_x_koch unfolds as a journey through three rooms, tracing states of overwork, tension, longing, and the simulation of rest. It invites reflection on the hidden weight we carry, the sparks that drive us, and the fragile escapes we yearn for. Between social constructs, digital realities, and human connections — where communication falters, roles shift, and relationships search for new directions.

RECHARGE YOUR LONGING by RICKLIN × KOCH shown at Galerie Mauritiushof, Bad Zurzach @galerie_mauritiushof 2025 About the work: The interactive installation RECHARGE YOUR LONGING, created by the artist duo Ricklin × Koch @ricklin_x_koch (@andrearicklin x @anouk.koch ) for the exhibition Emotional Cargo, evokes the atmosphere of a roadside service station. Visitors are invited to engage directly with the work, which features familiar convenience-store objects — lighters, keychains, mugs, flowers, and other small treasures — all designed and printed by Andrea Ricklin and Anouk Koch. During the opening, the shop was staffed by attendants, offering visitors the opportunity to purchase these items on site. This playful interaction reflects the instant gratification and fleeting fulfillment of contemporary desire. The installation transforms everyday commodities into a participatory space, exploring the intersections of consumer culture, emotional exchange, and the pursuit of immediate satisfaction.

29 PALMS - EMOTIONAL CARGO by Andrea Ricklin x Anouk Koch @ricklin_x_koch @andrearicklin @anouk.koch shown at Galerie Mauritiushof, Bad Zurzach @galerie_mauritiushof 23.08.2025–05.10.2025 about the work: 29 Palms recreates a beach environment, complete with a live feed from a distant shore, constructing a setting that evokes the allure of vacation. Relaxation is fragile, and the act of switching off is only temporary. The installation explores the tension between longing and disillusionment, revealing how notions of rest and recharging often rely on staged environments and curated offerings that rarely live up to expectations. about the exhibition: EMOTIONAL CARGO unfolds as a journey through three rooms; tracing states of overwork, tension, longing, and the simulation of rest.

Like a Moth to a Flame — solo show with Andrea Ricklin coming soon to KUNSTSURFER. @andrearicklin Like a Moth to a Flame explores the seductive pull of digital temptation — from algorithmically curated content to a culture of instant gratification. In a technological landscape where platforms personalize and intimately adapt to our behavior, the line between genuine desire and engineered response begins to blur. The exhibition poses a provocative question: are our choices truly our own, or are they subtly shaped by systems we barely understand?
