Paul Schönfelder (born 1995) is a Berlin-based painter and student of Fine Arts at the Universität der Künste Berlin. Working with acrylic, charcoal and oil, he creates canvases shaped by contrasts, ruptures and transitions. His practice engages with ambivalent behaviours, inner tensions and the opposites that define human thought and action.

Exploring the interplay between control and loss of control, clarity and blur, closeness and distance, Schönfelder uses colour, line and structure to give form to inner conflicts. Strong contrasts, spontaneous gestures and layered compositions transform his works into open visual worlds – reflections of the unspoken spaces that emerge between extremes.
