Ivy

Ivy.  Textile 200 x 300 cm

In her artwork, Stef Kreymborg investigates the interplay between individuals and the masses. The order found in nature, which fits together so marvellously in patterns and endless variation, is a great inspiration in her work. With changes in the climate and all the consequences of these, forms of growth are taking on an increasingly important role in Kreymborg’s work. Growth forms that flourish in the protected indoor environment, with no shortage of water or food, nor an overdose of moisture and sun.
Sometimes abstracted into forms that are nearly mathematical, but others burst in furiously, unruly and uninvited. She explores the tension between uniformity and diversity, between order and confusion, between symmetry and asymmetry, as nature has been doing for centuries.
