connection between this artwork and my practice:
Eva originally pursued a career in commercial textile design, which is close to me as a commercial ceramist and how she become postmodern artist by exploring the use of the simplest materials to create biomorphic and geometric forms.
Similarity of Eva Hesse’s works to my projects is the simplicity of the forms and our methods of using materials and objects to draw, paint and sculpt in space but our connection is way deeper than forms. There are personal connections such as “The artist’s struggle between impulses that causes a piece to be started and what actually happens, more freely, once its creation has begun” or “such a pragmatic tearing and reconfiguring freed Hesse from making decisions about the forms in advance”
she shows use of hand
