grünende
The title of the exhibition, grünende (greening), refers not only to green as a color but also to greening as an activity in nature—and an expression of growth and transformation. Ovid’s Metamorphosis vividly describes Daphne’s transformation into a tree: “…Her hair to leaves, her arms extend to boughs…” Rößner presents paintings and ceramics in shades of green.

All that remains of her is her shining beauty. Phoebus loved her in this form, as well.
