Birgit Zipser – Artist

2017 Zipser Dog

As a painter, I strive not just to depict form, but to convey the energy that animates it. I paint the rhythms that move wind, water, land, and people.

As a neuroscientist for four decades, I studied how perception and behavior emerge from electrical and chemical energy moving through neural structures. Today, I am driven by the same desire for understanding—only now, art is my means for discovery.
