Rosa M Hessling
Stiller Jubel – Licht
Pure color, light, and the intangible are the central themes in Rosa M Hessling’s paintings. In 1989, the artist discovered special color pigments in luminescent mineral-based paints which, by interfering with and being superimposed onto light waves, enable a processual perception of color and the parallel refraction of light. These interference pigments, which the artist binds in varnish, create a huge array of different color impressions, depending on the location. Initially, the image carriers were wood, canvas, or dibond aluminum composite. In the Bitburg exhibition, the juxtaposition of Hessling’s works with the architecture and the art on show throughout the building creates interesting dialogues that lead to new kinds of visual experiences which vary according to the time of day.
