Her painting is experimental in its process — with errors and shifts in direction considered as an integral element — yet precise and calibrated in its formal results. I am not trying to find new ways of expressing but looking for my own language, using all the languages we know. My work is neither abstract nor evidently figurative.

Privacy Policy. Site by Artlogic. Cued by the ersatz physiognomy, we might start to see more echoes of the bodily in the various canvases' curves and protrusions, to glimpse form against backdrop even where the paintings are nearly monochromatic. At play here is a sense of one thing, one reality, constantly meeting another. This show, unusually for the artist, is built on primary colours — as if in self-challenge, the maker wondering how to harness their trumpeting loudness into subtlety — but it then counterpoints the red, yellow and blue with woozy tans, bleached pinks, watery creams; whatever we focus on, we can find its opposite nearby.

Indeed, juddering scale shifts are fundamental to the works' effect per se, these leaps being themselves countermanded by other consistencies. The push-pull here is one of dynamics, it's perpetual, and it is relatedly generous to the viewer. A joke about writing: the writer has all the words, they just have to put them in the right order.

Deininger's work, here, is a demonstration of the contingency of meaning in the visual arts, but to say so is to go against the spirit of her work.
