Pure Taste Indicator - Artist Page

For me, working artistically means investigating and understanding how inner worlds and outer worlds are constructed. My installations and works on paper are characterized by how structures are created, repeated, connected, and how they become dense, and also transparent. In my drawings I often use only two elements: a circle and a line. Being perhaps similar to the binary code that consists of only ones and zeros, I find the possibilities of this vocabulary endless. These elements and combinations are repeated and through this repetition a certain structure is created. Repetition and small shifts within the repetitions are important in my work because they allow me to initiate an ambivalent process of having control and not having control. My drawings are moving between opacity and transparency, density and openness. These aspects are depending poles in an existing duality. I am interested in knowing how much density and how much transparency are needed to create a harmonious system. My drawing process is also influenced by both writing and knitting. The created structures have something of a textile but also of a text. The relation of the word text (Latin: texere = weaving) to the word textile is an underlying theme in my work. As in texts, every trace builds up endless connections and references to other traces. In my installations I investigate the polarity of transparency and density through various media, and by connecting elements in space.
