It is the line which determines Annette Mewes-Thoms present work. The line has arisen in the course of the time from her intensive water studies. Her biggest interest in the water is his surface, because here the whole universe is found as a reflexion again. . . . . partly clearly and in a sharp focus, partly completely ripped into shreds, then in meandering distortion. With pencil, paintbrush or the camera Annette Mewes-Thoms crosses and devours lines - partial with big, partially with a small distance between. She does this in many layers. There originate moved structures which seem flat or three dimensionally. Spaces between the lines grant views into the depth of the picture and disclose what’s behind that . The artist works with a concept, but nevertheless, she cannot plan her pictures. They must grow from layer to layer. Every picture process is an exciting play like an adventure, whose exit is not foreseeable. Annette Mewes-Thoms works mean nothing - they mean what the viewer is able to discover in them.
