Artist from Germany
Jacqueline Schubert started painting in 2015. Many years she had been living and working abroad. Now she lives in Germany, near Düsseldorf as a freelance artist. Style and technique she developed decisively through attending the “masterclass for painting”. Most of the time she works independently as an individual artist. Since 2022 she also has been working together in an artists group “qu*ART*et” with a total of 4 artists.
She participated in exhibitions in Germany and Italy (Düsseldorf, Krefeld, Berlin, Milano, Venice, Rome and Matera).
Most of her paintings are experimental, permanently incorporating new media and materials in the creative process. The topics revolve around things in everyday life, unusual perspectives and motif fragments. The style of painting is modern, expressionistic and mostly colourful. She takes her inspiration from nature, personal experiences or current events.

INTERVIEW with Jacqueline Schubert
Carmela Loiacono talks with Jacqueline Schubert who takes part with her Triptych “Structures”, composed by Resolution, Natural Flow and Structure, in the International Art Exhibition STORIES OF IDENTITY – From hidden places to daily life in Matera, at cultural hypogeum Lega Navale Italiana Matera-Magna Grecia.
Carmela Loiacono – Please introduce yourself and talk about the selected works you exhibited during the exhibition STORIES OF IDENTITY – From hidden places to daily life.
Jacqueline Schubert – I started painting in 2015. Many years I had been living and working abroad. Now I live in Germany, near Düsseldorf as a freelance artist. Style and technique I developed decisively through attending the “masterclass for painting”. Most of the time I work independently as an individual artist.
Since 2022 I also have been working together in an artist’s group “qu*ART*et” with a total of 4 artists.
Most of my paintings are experimental, permanently incorporating new media and materials in the creative process. The topics revolve around things in everyday life, unusual perspectives and motif fragments. The style of painting is modern, expressionistic and mostly colourful. I take my inspiration from nature, personal experiences or current events.
I wanted to paint a picture that shows organic growth, life – both perfect and imperfect. The middle picture was created first (Natural Flow). The natural structure already has a shape. And the question was, what came before and what comes after the first form? Resolution (before) and Structure (after)show the process of creation and becoming.
Carmela Loiacono – How would you describe your creative process? What or who influenced or is influencing your work?
Jacqueline Schubert – I am particularly interested in moments of being, things that touch us. How can one approach these aspects in a modern world in which perfect technique has trumped classical, even modern, painting? There are of course the painterly elements, color, surfaces, etc. The fundamental difference between computer- or photo-based works of art is the individual spirit of the artist, which is reflected in the image. I think it’s important that the viewer can sense my feelings and still have room for his/her own imagination.
I primarily experience influences in my artistic work from other artists who inspire me. Events in the world, discussions with people, but also collaboration in the artist group are wonderful moments that are reflected in my work.
Carmela Loiacono – What do you think about shared art on social media? Could it be an alternative way of communicating contemporary art?
Jacqueline Schubert – Social media has many advantages. You are open to the world and can see what others are doing with just a few clicks. You can choose depending on what you are interested in, etc. And of course you can represent yourself, show your own art, open yourself up to the world, so to speak. On the other hand, I think it is important to draw boundaries and remain responsible, moral and ethical.
Social media is a revolution for the art world. Although I believe that art has greater meaning in the real world. You always want to see a work of art up close; it lives from traces of work, imperfection, the colors, the material. These things are difficult to convey virtually.
Carmela Loiacono – What are your future goals and/or projects?
Jacqueline Schubert – I would like to develop myself further as an artist concerning expression, and motifs or the changeability of style. I want to stay innovative.
My projects with the artist group quARTet are therefore very interesting. We paint together, either four of us or two of us on one picture. This forces you to rethink your own ideas and to actively and consciously allow other influences.
Of course, I would also like to collaborate with national and international galleries and art curators, such as Dr. Carmela Loiacono. It is important to have trust in the collaboration and that it will be successful for both sides.
