Roseline Koener, 1985

About the Item

Roseline Koener oil on canvas 1985 About the artist: My adventurous journey as an artist has been focused on accessing the magic POOL of vibrant colors and life forces deep within me. I marvel at the infinite richness and divine beauty of colors, sounds, patterns, textures, and fragrances of Mother Nature. I am inspired and amazed by the powerful and dynamic cycles of life, which generate newness and oneness. The circular movements of planets and every cell, the miraculous growth of plants and mountains, the morning’s eclosion of roses, and the buoyancy of ocean waves fascinate me. Artists and musicians like Klee, Matisse, Tombly, Motherwell, Frankenthaler, Anatsui, Bach, Hafiz, Rumi, Hildegard von Bingen, and Mozart have inspirited my art and life. West Africa’s land, fabrics, textiles, music, and dance have been an influential catalyst in my paintings, revealing the warmth of vibrant colors niched in my soul. As well as other Indigenous cultures remembering our origins, African, Japanese, Thai, Indian, or Native and South American‘s textiles are a living source of inspiration for me like music. I resonate with an Aboriginal artist who said that he expresses the power and spirit of figures without representing them. My art is similar. Today, I do not represent or create images; I give voice to living sensations and visions through my paintings. A balance between spontaneity and maturation guides my process. I let my intuition initiate the first layers of colors, materials, and gestures, which take me into a vast unknown full of creative energy. My mind becomes a creative servant while my spontaneous heart takes the lead. While painting, I activate the energetic power of colors that embody life forces and spirit. These colors, which are unique in frequencies, emerge organically layer after layer to their own rhythm. My paintings then become a kind of intimate “living art.” They need to be felt by the heart in order to be seen. “Skyscrapers of love,” detail, recycled textile cones, ink, fabric, pigments While intuitively exploring the spatial and life power of colors, I see how they echo with each other. They call out to one another to liberate their maximal vibrancy and accentuate the flow and harmony. For example, I saw magnificent yellows and purple while listening to the cicada’s sounds. Slowly, I see preludes and concertos emerging in colors on fabric and paper imbued by inks, crayons, and pigments. By layering, adding, subtracting, and collaging, I sail between wild fields of energetic colors and organic spaces. Recently, a close friend told me that I give wings to colors. I enjoy the progressive emergence of lively colors surfacing: in fields, in lines, in structured and unstructured patterns, creating a dialogue with one another.
