Catwoman

Behind the mysterious "Catwoman" from Neustadt an der Weinstraße is the artist and mosaic modeler Sonja Hillmer (also known as Sunhill-Mosaik). She installed these elaborate mosaic portraits on various building walls throughout the city area as a kind of "art-pirative catwalk."

Her works - this the one with a blue heart - can be found in different, surprising locations across Neustadt – including the beginning of Laustergasse, the Alte Zwockelsbrücke, and the Alter Viehberg. Each individual motif is intricately crafted; laying and fitting the tiny stones and shards often takes around 45 minutes per mosaic. Due to their creative distribution across the city, searching for these artworks has become highly popular on local geocaching tours.
