Art is transformation »Art is the purpose of art
as love is the purpose of love.« Heinrich Heine
Ines Hildur starts her paintings intuitively, without any preconceived
programme. From the subconscious things occur, which she
cannot predetermine. The artist does not convert these inner pictures
to specific things.
With a special feeling for rhythm and through subtile colour
sounds she tells about free, associative picture stories. The works
exude tranquillity, clarity and sensuality. The visible aesthetic sensitivity
has a suggestive power, which captivates the observer. If you
get involved in these pictures – in the coloured moods, the symbolic,
fragile lines, symbols – they appear to be the beginning of a
story, which the observer can continue in his imagination. At the
trans-lation into the terms of language, however, something
mysterious remains, which cannot be translated.
The painter apparently leaves the processes for the creation of the
painting: colour layers overlay each other, lines are covered and
released again, used papers are stuck onto the work.
The artist describes her way of painting like this: » violations at
places of change are connected, sewed, covered in a varnishing
way, shine through like under a wax layer or can still haptically be
realised. Special importance is attached to the picture passages,
which appear to be particularly successful, they support their environment
– are significant for fringe areas, however, can also lose
their function again during the working process and have to be
given up – sometimes this is quite painful like the loss of a good
friend.«
She discovers special beauty in apparently everyday things. This
can be a crumbling wall, moss between concrete slabs, traces of
transience.
