On paper

In her approach to painting, Tanja Hehmann explores—down to the most minute differentiation—the range of tension between the amorphous and the crystalline, between all that appears to be solid, fluid or gaseous. The same can be said of her works on paper, whose graphic structures unfailingly strike a balance between flowing and concrete elements. Here also, suggestions of material qualities are contrasted with the ambiguity of possible representational interpretations. The predominantly horizontally aligned structures could be read as landscape-like layering, but are equally reminiscent of microscopic cuts.
