Linda Bluth is a Hamburg-based German-Mexican emerging painter and muralist who mainly works with acrylics, gouache, and pencil. In her paintings, she explores the tension between isolation and the longing for connection, drawing from her personal experiences with mental illness. Alongside these introspective themes, her work employs symbolism to investigate extreme contrasts in nature, its nurturing and cruel sides, the close relationship between birth and decay, and the place of human beings within natural cycles.

This interest is deeply rooted in her past work in the medical field, where close confrontation with the vulnerability of the human body heightened her awareness of its dependence on its surrounding environment. Her intense and vibrant color palette is strongly influenced by her Mexican heritage, as well as her fascination with folklore and tropical flora and fauna.

Her practice extends beyond the studio into public space. She has participated in street art festivals in Cambodia and the Netherlands
