The title
of Sonja Witte’s exhibition gets your attention from the very first
moment. Zu Dir oder zu Mir? To your place or to mine? This is an encounter which asks for more space to develop. An encounter under
Cupid’s wing, wouldn’t you say so?
The title-invitation is a messenger of surprise, adventure, love.
It is a
love of personal discovery, self-creation and exchange. It is a
message of freedom and creativity. The expression of a shared
experience, of a mutual understanding.
To your
place or to mine? This could also mean discovering someone else's
home, being invited/ allowed into someone else's personal space.
Maybe it's not only about choosing a particular place, but more about
prolonguing a beautiful moment and giving sensuality and reflection a
place to unfold.
Maybe it's
also about time flowing through colour and form, through nature and
human bodies. From your home (be it your body, your experience, your
view) to mine.
There are
different worlds and experiences co-existing in Sonja Witte's
paintings: the sea and the dancing floor, swimming and flying, the
concentration of an embrace and the explosion/unfolding of the
universe. The images transmit a sense of wonder at the ever-changing,
creative self, a feeling of joy and amazement from sharing a vital
space of mutual inspiration, be it your place or mine.
