ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The flowers that appear in my work are inspired from Silk Brocade and Sarong fabric adorned within my Peranakan heritage. The reinterpretation of floral pattern and geometric shapes while visiting distant memories with objects like lanterns and layered cakes. Exploring the complexity of the layered identity as a means of retaining my cultural history. The ethereal landscapes and tree lines are documented from National Parks visited and question the definition of 'home'. These elements investigate the evolution of identity, travel, the passage of time, and collective mindscape. The process of creating my work involves utilizing a combination of printmaking techniques. Similar to a painter using brushes and brush strokes; brayers and mark making tools are used to apply ink onto collagraph or plexi plates for the monotype backgrounds. Followed by paper-lithography, a transfer process which enables me to use my own documented photographic imagery. They are hand printed, with multiple runs through an etching press, to build upon the layers of color, pattern and imagery. Each monoprint is a unique one of a kind work on paper, where no editions are made.

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.
