With German parents, Otto Schade was born in Chile in 1971, and now lives and works in London. His dual nationality has enabled him to successfully exhibit his paintings in both countries. Fascinated by detail, pattern and repetitive form, Otto uses a variety of mixed media to help him physically reflect texture and surface qualities, and uses colour to intensify the illusion of it. Otto Schade has work in private collections worldwide and has had solo exhibitions in Berlin and Santiago and more recently in London.
