About the Item
Christine van der Cingel (1966) paints mainly cityscapes, people and animals. In her portraits the emphasis is on movement. It is more about the suggestion of movement than about the plastic representation of reality. Light plays a major role in her work. The way in which the light makes visible or conceals the contours is especially central. There is also an emphasis on stillness. Her work is essentially about that: the desire to lose yourself and become one with space.
With her animal paintings the emphasis has increasingly come to lie on stillness. The animal is often solitary in its environment. The animals have always been depicted in a monumental way, such as primordial creatures on cave paintings. I'm fascinated by the idea that you could 'capture' something big and comprehensive in a painting.
By sometimes deliberately keeping the contours of the animals vague, they almost disappear into space, becoming one with space. To become one with space is a way of forgetting time. Animals are always in the here and now. As a result, they have a natural way of 'being'.
Christine van der Cingel was educated at the Minerva Art Academy in Groningen. She received her degree in painting in 1992.
