Charlotte Ostritsch

Charlotte Ostritsch works in a process-based way and sees the actual doing as more important than the end result.

Through repetition, retake, further repetition and adjustments, she creates structures and patterns with an inner logic. She has developed a method in which she repeats something pleasurable, like drawing something, until it is automated and she becomes like a machine. Body and thought are separated and the method takes her away from herself and the inner critic. Her five-year-old son sometimes follows her creative process and they like to work with the same material and inspire and copy each other. The collaboration with the child is playful and liberating – in the seemingly meaningless, something meaningful arises. In the exhibition, Charlotte Ostritsch gives a picture of the reproductive process that has taken shape in clay, photos and prints.
