关于Often departing from literary or artistic references, Cosima zu Knyphausen’s works seem to tap into the sacred space between the intimate and the historic. Highlighting the entanglement of creation and desire, she repeatedly engages in her paintings with iconic art historical motifs as a way to reflect on her own depictions of queer bars, settings in the artist's studio, meditations on the muse, all the way to illuminations from Christine de Pizan’s medieval literary utopia The Book of the City of Ladies. Cosima zu Knyphausen’s practice encompasses different mediums such as painting with vinyl, oil, pastel, ink, fabric scraps and egg shells, as well as drawing, and writing.
