Austrian artist ANGELIKA LODERER mainly works with sculpture although she has also realized performances and been involved in drawings. In her sculptures, she often uses fragile, everyday materials that are derived from the vocabulary of domesticity. The resulting work – via a very specific amalgam of materials, shapes and objects- brings forth a new, metaphysical result.

In transience, fragility and decline, I see the formal expressions to which I refer in my designs, and which to some extent provide the framework conditions for my process-oriented work. From the abundance on offer, however fragile and vulnerable in composition, the elements fall into place, becoming worthless once again when dismantled.

And good news: a solo exhibition by ANGELIKA LODERER opens today – 7 september 2012 – at Schloss Limberg, Maissau (Austria).
