Capturing the Beauty of Femininity and Nature

ABOUT

Award-winning nude and fine art photographer Tina Trumpp was born in 1974 in Stuttgart, Germany. Her artistic journey took her to Italy, Spain, and France, where she lived and worked for many years. With her numerous recent international exhibitions, Tina Trumpp is in the spotlight of contemporary photographic art.

NUDE ART PHOTOGRAPHY

One of the few women in fine art and nude art photography, she has developed a personal style in which the female nude is more than just a motif; imbued with the gentle spirit of modern feminism, her fine art prints are an ode to women and their delicate beauty. Using natural lighting and soft lines, Trumpp offers a fresh perspective on nudity. Radiating tranquil self-confidence, her muses exude a natural sense of respectful elegance, accentuated by strength and breathtaking beauty. Often depicted in the hushed intimacy of their private spaces, they casually reveal their femininity while silently lost in deep thought. Are they reminiscing about a long-lost lover? Or waiting for one to return? Trumpp’s seductive nude art evokes a narrative rooted in thoughtful emotions rather than primal instincts.

LANDSCAPE AND NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY

Just as the great painters of all eras found their subjects in nature, Tina Trumpp also devotes part of her photographic art to this genre. Her ideal landscapes are presented in a majestic and magnificent manner, in the style of Caspar David Friedrich, inviting the viewer to reflect on these vast, enigmatic expanses and secret spaces of nature. The expanse of the sea, for example, invites reflection while simultaneously opening up the possibility of letting thoughts flow freely. Her photographic art explores the space between photography and painterly expression. Rather than simply capturing reality, Tina’s contemporary art photography becomes a canvas for color, light, texture, and gesture. Through soft rendering, layered compositions, and an intuitive use of light, her photographic art begins to resemble a painting rather than a traditional photograph.

PAINTINGS

In addition to fine art photography, Tina Trumpp began painting in oil in 2022 and working with watercolor. These modern paintings open up spaces of radical freedom.
While her photography often involves the careful planning of every detail, the paint in techniques such as the squeegee technique escapes this control. It moves, flows, and resists intention. From this interplay of chance and gesture, the unexpected emerges—something new that cannot be fully planned. It is precisely in this that a new creative quality arises.

During her residency in Marrakech in 2025, she painted *Jardins de Marrakech*, a captivating series of 35 watercolors that bring the local flora to life in radiant, glowing hues. Inspired by the vibrant atmosphere of Marrakech, this series explores the emotional power of color and movement. The city’s warm ochres, deep reds, and luminous blues serve as a starting point for a painterly process that embraces spontaneity and chance.

CYANOTPES

Tina also enjoys working with historical photographic processes, such as cyanotypes. Using this technique, she has created unique works featuring plants and butterflies from her own garden. Preserving biodiversity in an insect-friendly garden is particularly close to her heart, and over time her garden has also become a refuge for many hedgehogs.
Just like painting or sculpture, a garden can be a form of art and provides her with organic shapes, textures, and structures that she carefully arranges on paper. For Trumpp, plants from gardens are more than just decorative elements. They serve as records of living nature. When exposed to light in the cyanotype process, the plants leave their impressions on the paper, preserving their forms in a way that feels both scientific and poetic. This transformation encourages viewers to look more closely at nature, revealing the hidden beauty of everyday plants found in gardens. Through these cyanotypes, the viewer catches a glimpse of the most intimate sphere surrounding Tina Trumpp—a realm she inhabits and profoundly loves.

All fine art prints, paintings, and cyanotypes are available in the online store. We ship worldwide.
