Description from the seller
About the series “Noble Stones”
Inspired by Gerhard Richter and his abstract works in the series “Fuji” (1996), I reproduced the squeegee technique with a spatula. It was important to me that the manufacturing process remain visible across the various layers. I could have continued this series indefinitely, since even the slightest change in the production process led to a different fascinating result.
I have discovered analogies to color combinations, shapes, and textures in different gemstones, which I enjoy wearing as rings or pendants. The beauty of these inorganic gifts of nature only becomes visible through human refinement. My working processes resemble this refinement. Just as rock freezes time, in my painting processes of shifts and layering I have captured the changes in color play, shapes, and structures.
