The modernity of antiquity is getting a new renaissance – this is a topic that has occupied Sylvia Schramm (and also Karl Lagerfeld).
Three figures abstract and yet recognizable as “sisters” of the goddess Venus. They radiate power, for they wear folded, metal dresses that shimmer like armor. United as strong women, they stride across a graphic floor reminiscent of Renaissance paintings. Cool, sculptural shapes in the background underline the energy and dynamism of these emblematic power women.
Schramms artistic technique is digital painting, which she has developed into something unique with the knowledge gained from painting. The motif is printed onto a metal plate by means of a special, complex process, whereby a Coexistence between substrate and paint is created. The interplay between matt and shine makes the viewer literally feel the material and figurative and characterizes her impressive unique pieces. Symbolically, in order to preserve the ephemeral, this work was “weightily” framed in industrial iron.
