Ula Einstein
 
 
About the Artist

I’m engaged with building and alchemy. Alternating between the play of chance and control, composing and improvising, the process is organic and transformative.

Exploring materials and methods with a very hands-on and lo-fi approach, I embrace an economy of means to create an expansive whole. From micro to macro, there is fluctuating from particle to whole and back again.
I employ materials and tools using their innate characteristics, but also in ways which detour and extend from their original purpose.

I draw with fire, knives, thread and hot glue. My ever-shifting installations are often rooted in the exploration of physicality and immateriality. They consist of fragments made in the studio, created site-specific for exhibition

Through my meditation and deliberation on chance, control and uncertainty, my work is also further stretched by paradox: empty/full, conceal/reveal, shadow/light, pain/beauty, fracture/whole, static/movement.

The imagery produced through the forms is abstracted from a wide array of sources as diverse as molecular structure, cells, book pages, tracks, spheres, text, hieroglyphics, webs, fossils, impressions, eastern thought, architecture, synthetic design, and cave paintings.

The repetitive ritualistic work is a partial response to our culture of speed, multi-fragments, visual stimuli, and endless distractions - where I have a hard time focusing while holding the infinite complexity. These drawings are my way of contemplating and paring down accumulations. While things are changing every second, I remember our interconnectivity and am prompted to respond with an array of gestures, intimate and large, controlled and elastic, reflecting on our vastness.
