[Paranomic] by Jimmie Kruger, Fabrice Creed, Aernout Allen 2002 The new works reflect the artist's ambition to capture his own experiences and observations in such a poetic and abstract manner; Jimmie Kruger's objects are typewriters, dirty socks and syringes, it is the ability of text to stimulate our imaginations and to communicate images and meanings to each of us. The work does result from an awareness of the kinds of activity: collecting, analysing and sharing data; our concept of art must be universal and have an interdisciplinary nature, another, equally important aspect of this work is the search for beauty in the world around. The unique design of these works takes them beyond the realm of a cultural craft into sculpture and mixed media, beyond any simplistic categorization; together these elements form within their layering an illusion of architectural dimensionality which never denies its inherent flatness. We find that in the hidden spaces. |
