Recenze Jorinde Voigt

The works of Jorinde Voigt (born 1977, Frankfurt am Main) create a unique visual language, which aims at making the invisible visible. Music, weather, geography, literature, and philosophy are among the subjects that inspire Voigt s lyrical drawings, all of which she renders into a dizzying maelstrom of lines and notations as one thought is linked to the next. In Piece for Words and Views, Voigt turns to Roland Barthes s famous book, A Lover s Discourse: Fragments to produce a series of thirty-six drawings, each of which contains elements of collage cut to represent particular words found in the book recreating, thereby, the central tenets of semiotics: signifier and signified. With texts by John Yau and the artist, this publication presents Voigt s complex pictorial spaces, which come together in a composition of form and idea. schovat popis
