"A Castle for Samorin" - installation in a synagogue, Samorin, Slavokia - Sept. 2005 |
During my recent Hiatus at the
Playa residency program there were two other visual artists. I posted
Rob Licht's work earlier. The other artist was Sonja Hinrichsen who works in a variety of media including installations, drawings and landscape art. Her ink drawings are not currently posted on her website but may show up soon. I think they make an interesting comparison to her enormous drawings in snow that are currently receiving a lot of attention. Both involve repeated organic forms. By repeating and building up layer upon layer of tiny circles she creates forms that resemble nothing so much as microorganisms viewed through a microscope. Using the same approach on the scale of a landscape is not only visually arresting but possibly a reminder that the essentials elements of visual aesthetics repeat themselves on all scales whether we are capable of witnessing them or not. Her installation work explores a wide range of topics and ideas which I won't even begin to try and summarize here, but I encourage you to look through them at:
