Laubscher works from her atelier and exhibition space in Arisdorf, near Basel, Switzerland.

“I have been accompanying Sibylle and her paintings for over 20 years - I see passion and a constant path to her own expression. Sibylle stays away from the vanity and arbitrariness of the art market. With her paintings, she expresses what she honestly sees and feels, beyond the fashion trends to which art is also subject.”
