Breathing

Inhale……and then…….Exhale. A breath: the act of Breathing. Something so innate in our existence... In the newest body of work by Silke Spitzer (Germany), titled Breathing, the ebb-and-flow of the natural process in making is observed.  Combining modern materials with the natural, she builds playful, idyllic compositions. Aluminum, slate and antlers partnered with discs of plastic and fabric allow us an intimate encounter with the natural state of simple and elegantly rendered materials.
