Summary:
In ihren Zeichnungen und Textarbeiten erforscht Petra Sterry psychische Befindlichkeiten, spontane Empfindungen und rationalisierte Gefühle. In der Werkserie Elastic Punch untersucht sie grundlegende menschliche Zustände wie Unbehagen, Trauma, Angst, Lethargie oder Freude mittels der Sprache. Ausgehend von Franz Xaver Messerschmidts "Charakterköpfen" zeigt Sterry die Brüchigkeit der Existenz, die jedes Ich zwischen Selbstbehauptung und Selbstverlust bewältigen muss. Ergänzend rückt das partizipatorische Projekt Das elastische Ich das besondere Erleben von betagten Menschen in den Mittelpunkt. --Publisher's website.
In her drawings and text-based works, Petra Sterry explores psychological sensitivities, spontaneous impressions, and rationalized feelings. In the Elastic Punch series of works, she examines, using language, fundamental human states such as discomfort, fear, lethargy, and joy.
