Tinca Veerman is a restless artist. She looks at the world around her and cannot help but see abstract shapes. She is not interested in making realistic renderings, but in isolating parts and movements of objects and natural elements, so they become abstract and multi-interpretable. Veerman works intuitively, waiting for the right moment to ‘dive in’, to cut, edit, paste, or draw to reveal, in her own words, ‘the shape I feel should be there’. In her collages (ranging from large-scale and thickly layered to small and delicate), videos, and sculptural fabric pieces, she explores various ways of abstrahizing; departing from a deeply personal space to transcend it. Repetition is not her thing.
