Svenja's paintings are absolutely amazing.
Composition, shape, surface.
Nothing more.
What else does one really need ?
Svenja Deininger: Untitled / Head

Svenja's use of color and shape remind me of Ozenfant.
Svenja creates a wonderful tension between shape and surface in these paintings.

There's a range of surface distinctions from matte to gloss, smooth to rough.
Some of the edges of the paintings reveal multiple built-up layers that provide a peek into the making of the object.

I think Svenja juxtaposes the surface in some ways similar to Suzan Frecon.
