Statement
Her paintings create a strong connection between objects and human presence and
a seperation of perceived function and pure form. The paintings are underlined by the
minimalist induction of objects as well as the gaps and breathing space between them.
The objects become enveloped by their background and the simple acts of identification
multiply thus transforming their function and reception.
