‘BLADEREN, Notes for Now.’ – Dagmar Baumann, installation.
Light, colour and paint are the features of the installation Leaves by Dagmar Baumann. She sets the scene with the work that came to live during and after a timeout of 7 ½ weeks in the nature of Bali. Coming forth by close observation of the apparent vegetation – namely the battered and strong leaves of the banana plants. The giant leaves become a symbol for the encounter with Hindu-culture and the depths of the tropical forest. For the artist green embodies the immaterial realm in which the gaze, gesture and the craft are become symbiotic. In the space of Walgenbach Art & Books this experimental works find a form as a spatial installation. The original watercolours made on Bali and their multiforme green successors are showcased in a handmade artists book.
