About this artwork
Inspired by a chess opening in which a player risks one or more pawns or a minor piece to gain an advantage in position. Is about remembering one can overcome a disadvantage (loss) and use it as an advantage (gain) - or as Nietzsche would say, in this sadly worn out quote, “what doesn’t kill me, makes me stronger”.

« My painting process is characterized by planning, which then negates itself throughout its execution. In the process, representation shifts to abstraction, and figuration becomes composition. »
Delia Vilhelm is an award-winning artist based in Australia whose paintings have been exhibited nationally and in Romania. In addition, her art is featured in publications such as Art Edit Magazine. Vilhelm's works fuse surrealism with abstraction in equal measure. Through her art, she explores the creative process as a reflective practice and a tool for self-inquiry.
