Characteristic of Margret Schopkas work is her joy in playing with assumed realities. Through her unhampered traetment of objects and forms she creates optical illusions or ambigrams which, beyong their aesthetic quality, raise questions of materiality and technique without exhausting their capability to provide answer. Her works are the product of an artistic perception which surpasses the mere seeing of things. Margret Schopka alters items of every-day life to such a degree that, as a result of their artistic recreation, they become hardly recognisable as such and gain a whole new significance.Doris Hensch, Historian of Art www.margretschopka.de
