Finissage Schwarzraum / Gelbzeit
The starting point of Oliver Thie's artistic practice is the attempt to deepen the perception of natural phenomena. To this end, he explores hand drawing as an artistic research tool and develops specific forms of translation that extend the classical means of drawing. The exhibition "Schwarzraum / Gelbzeit" brings together pieces from two groups of works: On the one hand, drawings that deal with shadow images via the removal of specially produced layers of soot, and on the other hand, watercolors and wire weavings that have emerged from the intensive observation of the withering of forsythia. Both unite his examination of the connections between knowledge of the world and the ambiguity of graphic traces.
Oliver Thie (*1983) studied at the Kunsthochschule Berlin Weißensee and graduated as a master student of Prof. Nanne Meyer in 2015.
