Heinrich is a printmaker based out of Kansas City. He has exhibited extensively throughout the United States where his work is in public and private collections including the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art, the Kemper-Albrecht Museum, Truman Medical Center, Loews Kansas City Convention Center Hotel, Dell Children’s Medical Center in Austin, and the University Hospital in Cleveland. When not making art, he loves spending time in the kitchen creating culinary bedlam and cooks a mean dish of noodles. By creating his own patterned language, his work investigates the sense of longing that comes from travel and relocation, while seeking the familiar. Contrasting Eastern and Western sensibility, his work reflects layered and overlapping cultural elements while synthesizing the past with present. The reinterpretation of Floral Chinese brocade patterns, objects of personal history, alongside imagery of vast ethereal landscapes. They explore the evolution of identity, memory, the passage of time, definition of home and the shifting mindscape and viewership of the world around him. The process of his work combines several printmaking techniques, including collagraphs, monotypes, and paper-lithography. His work is hand printed, with multiple runs through an etching press, resulting in rich layers of color, pattern and imagery. Each monoprint is a one of a kind work on paper, where no editions, multiples or reproductions are made.
