Statement: Cornelia Regine Prawitt`s work is devoted to represent
the task of the non-visible pictorially, that is, the thing which
constantly surrounds us and is even a part of ourselves. Her works
are usually created in long painting processes. After the first
layers of colours and forms have been applied to the canvas, the
artist embarks on a search for the given and the hidden. To picture
the discovered and recognized themes, the artist should often
develop several shades of colours. In the painting process,
spontaneous ideas must “grow into” an image composition, the goal of
which is in the end to function as a perfect unity, which combines
exciting colour harmonies. Themes that personally interest the
artist can also serve as an idea for painting. The words of Paul
Klee (1879 – 1940) “Art does not reproduce the visible, it makes
visible”, aptly describe her concerns. Even if something remains
deliberately as an implication, this precisely illustrates that,
inside the non-visible there exist movement and change, and that,
these changes are laws of nature or that, image fragments only show
parts of a whole. The dimension we cannot see but feel is the source
of her inspiration, as well as the myths, legends, and hidden truths
such as the cosmic context in which man is involved and expresses
itself in everyday life. For instance, a substantive aspect of her
work originates from nature.
Press: The work of the artist Cornelia Regine
Prawitt lives from a cheerful color with hints of Expressionism.
They blend visually into the tradition of Art Informel with a
convincing own imagery. Her works reveal a high mastery in the
mastery of the line as well as in dealing with contrasting color
harmonies.

“Art does not reflect the visible, but makes visible.” Paul Klee
(1879 – 1940) This quotation aptly describes the concern of the
artist Cornelia R. Prawitt because it dedicates itself to the task
of the invisible, which surrounds us constantly, indeed, that is
even a part of ourselves, to express painterly. |
