IKEBANA

FRIEDRICH

This exhibition was constructed backwards in the sense that the beautiful materiality of the artwork already existed as a non-art object, made by someone as an action of cleaning up waste material in an economical fashion.

By moving this material to the gallery context and then following the formal methodology of an art form like Ikebana, the work crystallises towards an increasingly mysterious outcome.

Friedrich’s art practice often uses informal research techniques (wikipedia/google) to develop counterfeit methodologies of creation.
