Luise Depont "the plant life of saints"

At Nicelle Beauchene Gallery
Media: Drawing, Sculpture

Inspired by Emma Kunz, a self-described healer and researcher, Despont creates shapes and forms expressed through rhythms, measurements, and a sparse sense of geometry against the ruled sheets of antique ledger pages. Despont’s lyrical translation of color and value through the use of symbols, inkblots and outbursts of scratched lines creates a platform where formalism, abstraction and minimalism intermingle. The drawings, acting as points of departure into the practice of telepathy, prophecy and contemplation, echo and reflect the functionality of Indian Tantric drawings. Theoretical as they are, the drawings allude to the conditions and capacities of the mind.
