Transforming structures from the world around her with the help of photo collage, objects and installations, she recontextualises them in what she terms a \u201cnew scenery\u201d. Ranging from small-scale sculptures such as the geometric wall piece \u201cPyrite Architecture\u201d to larger interventions in public space, she analyses the \u201crelationship between the political system and the individual human being\u201d. Her desire for a \u201cfree spirit to live\u201d led her to Berlin and says she now feels at home working from her former hairdresser&#8217;s shop studio\u00a0in Prenzlauer Berg.<\/p>\n<p>Fittingly for an artist based in the architectural palimpsest that is Berlin, her interest in the postwar modernist structures of East and West guide her sensibility, and draw her to the aesthetics of minimalism and Russian constructivism. Holding a mirror to the political context in which a building was once imagined and then refracting it through her own contemporary perspective, she creates collages that act as a \u201ctopography\u201d combining \u201cspatial pattern, atmosphere and personal experience\u2026 all the images show situations with new correlations that have been changed by utopian imagination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/katinkatheis.de\/\" target=\"_blank\">katinkatheis.de<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Text von Susanna Davies-Crook<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An artist with a relentlessly \u201cconstructionalistic impulse\u201d, Katinka Theis works in the space between sculpture and architecture.
