Caroline Weber

Caroline Weber (1974) from Atelier Weber is a self-taught full-time artist. She lives and works in rural Schwyz in Switzerland.

In her newest works, Weber uses raw canvas. Kneeling or standing over the large blank pieces, she pours out the paint directly onto the fabric.

Weber plays with pictorial depth by building up veil-like layers of colour that coalesce into amorphous forms. Soft washes with wispy, feathery edges are paired alongside round and oblong forms, some of which have been dripped and splattered with a lively immediacy, while others have been gently pooled, displaying a rounded and meandering edge.

The amount of control she exerts over the delineation of these forms is staggering, especially in the contours and outlines of the shapes, and in their joining of neighboring forms.

Weber manages a great degree of three-dimensionality in her work. Certain areas create a powerful sense of recessional depth and perspectival space.

ARTIST STATEMENT
My intention is to capture moments of transience. I draw inspiration from nature and its phenomena. For example when wafts of mist pass through valleys. It looks different every minute. What interests me is how it ultimately works on the canvas.
