Artist's Statement | |
| Changes and Vitality "I view man and his body as a method of expression as being the essential aspect of my work. What is man? What colours do emotions have? Do the many facettes of the soul arise from an ordered, natural structure which raw linen represent? Does the yellow give a calm mood to the.painting? I have never seen it as a challenge to copy nature. It is in its own respect unique. Being a human being in comparison means: being constantly involved in movement and change. And this is the essential theme of my work. When I started my studies in 1985, I was mainly interested in studying the human body. I did, so to speak, basic research on the human body. And later during my second phase, two types of forces interacted. My personal way of perceiving the body and the mood of the individual model. At that time I minimalized the complexity of what I perceived on raw linen, charcoal and two colours. I approached man as a subject by emphasizing his physical forms and contours. This development into the depth of man was approached in various steps. From the superficial view of what the eye can see unto deeper lying facettes and emotions. This means: from the concious drawing with the paint brush to a much more free, intuitive painting: from the actual static type of study to this movement and spontaneity. The wish to control and lead has been replaced by a more or less unconscious play with colours." Andrea Silberhorn-Piller | |
