"Marie Ruprechts art shows us that you can get an impression of the 'big picture' by just paying attention to the small details. What we can learn from this is that the aspect we look at is never the only one. We are living in a time when we often want to lay down so many things as absolutes, whereby we can forget, that just a slight change in perspective can bring an entirely different dimension to our picture."
