Solange Heilenkötter

Años de trabajo y experimentación con el volumen y la luz se manifiestan en mi obra donde lo liviano y frágil crece para imponerse en tamaño y contraste. Busco la belleza de lo simple, la transparencia, el movimiento espontáneo del material donde tenso, suelto, corto, cruzo…y como en un baile la imagen se me va apareciendo.

Years of work and experimentation with volume and light have resulted in my work where lightweight and fragile materials transform creating an end result prevailing in size and contrast. In each piece, I seek the beauty of simplicity, transparency, and spontaneity finding the perfect balance whereby tension and slack, cuts and crosses, come together as if in a constant dance.
