BETTINA KRIEG

Bettina Krieg’s work on paper is a large-scale painting in acrylic applied with a wide brush in long, meandering sweeps.

Krieg’s use of abstract, ambiguous shape prompts an intuitive, emotional reaction to the image – a feeling which may change depending on the context of the piece and the mood of the viewer. Visible brush strokes draw the eye to follow the curving lines, creating a sense of motion and an impression of how the marks were made.
