About this artwork
“Ice Flowers” is a contemporary art quilt that translates the fragile beauty of frozen natural phenomena into textile form.
The organic structures are reminiscent of winter ice flowers on glass – fleeting forms that spread, branch out, and disappear again. The combination of hand- and machine-guided quilting lines creates relief-like surfaces that subtly absorb light and reflect it vividly.
The color palette of cool greens, grays, and violets… is interspersed with bright, almost luminous areas. This creates a captivating interplay between depth and lightness, between density and dissolution.
"Ice Flowers" moves between observation of nature and abstraction. The work invites the viewer to delve into its delicate structures and discover ever new forms and associations.
Unique item.

My artist statement
I am a visual artist and explore change as a fundamental principle of life. In my work, I combine painting, textiles, and relief to create multi-layered, sculptural surfaces that respond to light, perspective, and movement. Layers, transparencies, patina, sheen, and textile structures allow color, depth, and mood to appear ever-changing, reflecting traces of growth, development, decay, and transience. I am not interested in capturing a state, but rather in its mutability—and the possibility of making this mutability sensually perceptible. My works invite viewers to shift their perspective, to engage with the unusual, and to continually discover something new within them.
