Lotte Wieringa

Painting as an exercise in tenderness;

Lotte Wieringa is interested in the ways we perceive and describe reality. The visual imagery that emerges in her painting practice originates contexts ranging from quantum physics to indigenous wisdoms. Exploring the edge between the seen and unseen, she seeks a space where spoken language stops and alternative narratives of understanding can emerge.

Noting that perceptions of reality change throughout different times and cultures, Lotte queries the many forms ‘realityʼ can take. She is fascinated by the abstract elements of life and how we can use these to awaken a deeper sense of sensory awareness and interconnectedness with each other.
