Wadim Hermann
Born in 1991 in Siberia, Wadim Hermann moved to Berlin at age seven. With roots in Tatar and Russian-German heritage, his creative journey began through graffiti, manga, and tattoo art, later expanding into surreal collages and installations. His passion for martial arts also played a crucial role in shaping his mindset. A key influence was a mentor who combined design and illustration, inspiring Wadim to pursue art seriously. Balancing social work and artistic expression, he worked as a martial arts trainer, youth mentor, and street social worker—experiences that deeply inform his art. His work merges urban aesthetics with classical painting, exploring themes of nihilism, human existence, and transformation.
Wadim’s art is a fusion of deep themes and playful aesthetics. He transforms emotions and observations into layered image mosaics, blending abstract expressionism with urban and surreal elements. His work isn’t just to be seen but experienced—inviting reflection, challenging perceptions, and guiding viewers through a journey of self-discovery. Each piece carries love, pain, questions, devotion, and demons, leaving a lasting imprint on the mind and heart.
