Sabine Tress’s paintings can be understood as constantly reforming spaces of possibility, in which another form of expression takes over, to a point where words are no longer enough to describe emotions or give space to emotionality as such. Large gestural forms in the shape of hearts or clouds, layers upon layers, arcs that trace their parallel paths through the various backgrounds and intermediaries; vibrant colours that clash explosively, connect with each other, recede in turmoil or overlap harmoniously; dense, luminous surfaces interacting with airy, free lines; white, transparent veils covering bright neon colours – the uncontrollable collides with controlled gestures. Traces and streaks of flowing paint, surfaces on which undissolved pigments accumulate, combine with curved, composed forms. Sabine Tress’s paintings involve a tension between the memory of what was felt during the creative process and the immediate feelings evoked when looking at them (Feelings can be everything and nothing, a flicker, a flow).
