Manuela is both a figurative and abstract artist. Her work reflects her enthusiasm for travel, from the raw reality of the streets of Johannesburg to the chaos of the back alleys of Accra to the graffiti of Brooklyn street artists...
In her studio in Braunschweig, in apparent chaos, the artist works tirelessly and simultaneously on the works around her until their final completion.
Her work has been shown in many countries in the form of exhibitions and installations. Her works are in public and private collections all over the world.
