In her work Evalie Wagner fathoms this phenomenon in tableau paintings together with small still life – paintings of broken and harmed „everyday – use – objects“ like plates and a damaged carpet in a poetical manner. The artwork is on paper, which is mounted on canvas. In this way fine cracks and folds are arising and create a distinctive and fragile appearance. Some broken and fixed plates are hanging between the pictures. The work refers to old traditions like the japanese Kintsugi tecnique of repairing broken pottery with gold, thereby understanding that the piece is more beautiful and precious for having been broken and fixed.
