Light and the Ladder (no. 3)
Located in Maribor, SI
Kinetic Minimalism of the Light “Rimele went even further; in his installations, he studied the laws of colour reflections and shadows with care and thus created magical new worlds in which materiality intertwines with their coloured shadowed dematerialisation.” Dr. Jure Mikuž December, 2012 (in the book Oto Rimele. Spirituality of Material Absence, p. 28) In the past tradition of painting, only the frontal parts of paintings were always the carriers of the content. I broke this millennial tradition and focused my attention on applying colour onto the edges and the back of the painting. These parts of my painting compositions are hidden from the viewer's eye and are visible only indirectly – as reflections of the paint reflecting onto the wall area, addressing the viewer with their immaterial presence. This creates coloured light and coloured shadows, which change in the intensity of the coloured radiation in daylight. A single painting composition, however, does not show just one static image, but addresses the viewer with a multitude of images generated by the changing daylight throughout the day. The attentive observer experiences such kinetic pictorial images personally and as a complete mental (spiritual) experience. In the paintings of past periods, light is depicted only indirectly – as an “illuminator” of the materiality of the pictorial motif. For me, light itself is the central motif of painting exploration. In my luminous painting objects, however, I do not depict light, but create it. It is an actual, present light that communicates with the viewer as a living, moving part of the artistic message. In the series of fourteen images entitled Light and Ladder...

Convex 23-A
Located in New York, NY
Convex 23-A (2023) Acrylic and cold way on three segments of Aluminum 29 Inches Hester’s practice is a meditation on both her personal and our collective pasts. Throughout her works, Hester consistently acknowledges the seemingly opposing forces that build our daily lives—creating an atmosphere abounding with both elegy and rejuvenation. The artist’s technique of painting on each substrate—paper, plexiglass and aluminum—goes far beyond conventional brushwork. Through a painstaking and physical process, she applies and removes acrylic paint with the use of sanders, hammers, routers and drills, in a continual process of building, breaking and rebuilding. Surprisingly, even the works on paper are sanded. Surfaces are mottled and textured, scraped and punctured. Layer upon layer of striated, thick colors dance astride more delicate patterned areas, created with collaged bits of metal leaf and complex cross-hatching marks. Yet, strikingly, the eye finds places of rest as colors and patterns conjoin harmoniously, and chaos and control share spaces. Sculpture / Painting / Sanding / Aluminum / Silver / White / Blue / Green / Yellow / Segments / Geometric About the Artist: Francie Hester works principally on sculpted aluminum, steel and plexiglass, in a process-based practice that builds pixelated and vibrant pigments in deep layers with patterns of drips, grids and fragmented shapes that are then deconstructed through sanding, scraping, drilling and cutting to reveal the finished, textured surfaces. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Jordan, Ulaanbaatar, Ireland, and Costa Rica, and in solo exhibitions with Susan Eley...
