Texts

Nadine Wölk plays with the different levels of perception of the painterly representation, in which she extends traditional techniques with modern means of expression. In her new works, painting seems to enter into a dialogue with photography and youth culture more than before. It is no longer an examination of the childhood past, but a kind of documentation of the present, in which the fleetingness of moments and experiences is thematized. [...] The question of the retrievability of subconscious experiences comes to the fore. In this context, Wölk makes use of the documentary quality of the photograph as a depiction of reality, while at the same time pointing out that the associated memory is inevitably to be found outside the photograph. This results in a legible discrepancy in her works between subjective and objective perception of what is experienced and of herself.
