Santorini<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

White houses, cubic forms and curved domes are terraced across the steep slopes of the island of Santorini. Against the deep blue of the sky and sea, clear contrasts emerge, creating an almost graphic order in the architecture. The bright Mediterranean light makes surfaces and shadows stand out sharply. Stairs, walls and roofs come together to form a rhythmic structure of lines and shapes. The image captures the island\u2019s unique atmosphere \u2013 a blend of vastness, light and the sea. Against a backdrop of volcanic landscape and radiant architecture, an impression of tranquillity, clarity and southern ease emerges. This atmosphere of vastness and tranquillity also makes the place a symbol of travel and freedom. <\/p>\n

Dry Dock<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

Repairs to the Alioth were carried out in the old dry dock at the Panama Canal\u2019s outlet to the Pacific in 2008. The dock, which dates from 1915, has been preserved in its original condition and is still in operation. I took the photos of this repair work and of the dock in 2008 during my stay there. They inspired Ingrid to create this collage, which also features other maritime motifs. The ship\u2019s propeller is clearly visible. On the right-hand side of the picture, we can see the flywheel of a marine diesel engine. <\/p>\n

Rebellion<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

The painting is characterised by a dark, tense atmosphere. In the centre, a landscape is faintly suggested behind a turquoise sea \u2013 not a clearly defined scene, but rather a hint of the horizon, of the distance. In the foreground, however, the tranquillity is shattered. Bold, energetic brushstrokes criss-cross the canvas \u2013 some applied vertically, others hurled diagonally across the picture. The colours red, ochre, dark blue and black stand in stark contrast to one another and partially overlap. The brushstrokes appear spontaneous, almost combative. The red brings heat and passion to the picture, ochre an earthy heaviness, whilst dark blue and black lend a deep, almost contemplative note. The varying directions of the brushstrokes create dynamism and restlessness \u2013 a visual rebellion against order and stagnation. This gives rise to a tension between the distance and the foreground, between suggestion and gesture, between stillness and outburst. \u2018Rebellion\u2019 comes across as an inner conflict on canvas \u2013 raw, immediate and full of emotional intensity. <\/p>\n
