Sigrid Bautze-Klinder

Sigrid Bautze-Klinder, a self-taught artist, works primarily with natural and mineral materials in her paintings and object art. Her technique of structural painting combines abstract motifs, geological structures, and layers of material, employing sand, gravel, lime, ash, tar, stone dust, rust, and gold leaf. Her works are dense pictorial spaces that, like microscopic landscapes, reveal fragility, memory, and the ever-present transformation of the earth, thus conveying a quiet, profound fascination with change and time.
