Eveline Painting

Caroline Weber (1974) from Atelier Weber is a self-taught full-time artist. She lives and works in rural Schwyz in Switzerland. In her newest works, Weber uses raw canvas. Kneeling or standing over the large blank pieces, she pours out the paint directly onto the fabric. Weber plays with pictorial depth by building up veil-like layers of colour that coalesce into amorphous forms. Soft washes with wispy, feathery edges are paired alongside round and oblong forms, some of which have been dripped and splattered with a lively immediacy, while others have been gently pooled, displaying a rounded and meandering edge. The amount of control she exerts over the delineation of these forms is staggering, especially in the contours and outlines of the shapes, and in their joining of neighboring forms. Weber manages a great degree of three-dimensionality in her work. Certain areas create a powerful sense of recessional depth and perspectival space. ARTIST STATEMENT My intention is to capture moments of transience. I draw inspiration from nature and its phenomena. For example when wafts of mist pass through valleys. It looks different every minute. What interests me is how it ultimately works on the canvas. Her work has been published in magazines, newspapers and catalogues. She corporates with international brands like Bombay Sapphire Gin or Visa Cornercard and is a semi-final winner of Artbox Project Barcelona 1.0. In 2021 she got the Certificate of Merit, Luxembourg Art Prize, organized by the Pinacothèque, a private museum located in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Another work can be found in a private museum near Athen in Greece. In her region she is a star. She participated in solo and group exhibitions. Her work can be found in a museum, in corporate premises as well as in private collections all over the world.
