Statement Profile GlogauAIR Project CV Summary

Statement

My interdisciplinary practice involves sculpture, painting, printmaking, textile, video and photography. My process is additive, which means I work in layers, and in each layer I use a new medium, thus increasing the complexity of the piece. I always start with a photograph, which I work on digitally and then transfer to fabric or wood.

In my recent artwork, I seek a dialogue between two worlds by using ancient everyday objects, which are loaded with history, interweaving them with contemporary textures and vibrant colors. By putting these objects in current context, I offer new insights linking the past with our contemporaneity to reflect on the different meanings that things had and will have over time.

Profile

GlogauAIR Project

In ‘Poetics of the Ordinary,’ I bring exquisite porcelain objects from the 17th to the 19th centuries, and place them in a modern context by juxtaposing them with everyday objects from our time. Inspired by the collections of the Kunstgewerbemuseum and the Ethnologisches Museum, I seek to connect with the memories and imaginations that these objects evoke.

Through photography and mixed media techniques like transfer, drawing and painting on wood, I merge the antique with the present, the real with the representation, and mass production with the unique and unrepeatable. The result is an artwork characterized by bold and striking colors that invite viewers to engage in a dialogue between its history and the present.
