Julia Schewalie focuses on the reflection of light on monochrome surfaces. The material used in each case is wrested from its original purpose. Then the creative work process takes place: she sorts, constructs, arranges, cuts accurately, composes small geometric parts into large surfaces, creates curvatures and newly structured image surfaces. In this way, the material appears sometimes hard, sometimes soft, without betraying its true state. It seduces the viewer into an interplay between construction and deconstruction. The changing reflections on the surface are always part of the work. The works capture the space together with the natural and artificial light and the viewer in an individual way. They change continuously and know no fixed state.
