Bettina Weiss
Based on the idea that our world and all living beings are created, sustained and pass away by energies and forces, Bettina Weiss tries to visualize this idea and its possibilities in her work. Geometry as an ancient principle of order is her preferred formal language for working on the representation of outer and inner landscapes. Geometric basic elements are like an alphabet with which she can develop and play things through.
She is interested in creating a tension between the rational and the irrational, between surfaces and ground, as well as making potential systems of order perceptible on an emotional level in the painting.
The process of creating each painting is intuitive, even if the constructive aspect seems to be dominant at first. With these forms, which originally come directly from nature, she is constantly working on new versions and the possibilities of painting.
