Solveig Schmid, born in Oberkirch in 1990, studied fine art at the
Berlin University of the Arts (UDK) with Robert Lucander and
Valerie Favre. She was awarded scholarships, such as the Dorothea
Konwiarz Foundation, Allover and Promos and was recently working
as a freelance lecturer at the UdK Berlin. She has exhibited at Galerie
Kai Erdmann, X Pinky, Dragoner, Agva Ciat and Studio Hanniball,
among others.
Large-format paintings ascend otherwise submerged spaces and moods
to consciousness. These surface in the mind with the
contradictory qualities of vivid potency and oneiric ungraspability.
Nuances, density, and permeability are playfully explored through the
direct painting process, creating a field of tension through color
reduction, minimalist composition, and various glazing techniques.
The primer remains partially transparent, allowing both the canvas, and
the brushstrokes of the white undercoat, as well as the color
glazes, to interact and merge in a choral interplay between harmony
and dissonance, surface and depth.
The hieroglyphs/cross-sections/ground plans appear dialectical – quick
gestures that stand in isolation and explore the fleetingness
and absence of language. In the laminated paper works, background
and gesture are directly linked. The boundaries of the surface are
sometimes broken, in part they interact with positions of the drawings
and allow associations with private or public spaces.
