Paths
Ways are commonly referred to as. C o n n e c t i o n between two “points”. whatever that means.
Ways lead back and forth.
Paths lead steeply uphill or eternally at ground level into the somewhere, but at the end there is
the target,
which is not seldom the beginning of a way…
So I let my thoughts wander the way…
…and met “Hedwig Schwarzfuß”, whose creative image I had noticed years ago, and asked her to add some theme-related works to the current exhibition cycle.
“Hedwig Schwarzfuß”
Watercolors,
Linoleum prints,
Pen drawings,
Collages,
has been making its way through colors since October 2017,
always looking for the right direction….
