Mara Heuer is a German-based artist whose work reimagines the visual worlds of childhood and pop nostalgia. She explores the playful universes of cartoon characters, toys, and collectible figures, often revisiting the cultural landscape of the 1980s and 1990s, decades that shaped her early imagination. Across her series, Heuer translates these familiar icons into new psychological terrains, examining memory, emotional processing, and the impulse to collect. Her work contains a delicate mixture of self-irony, vulnerability, and rebellion.
