“I wanted ‘Komfort Skulptur’ to mimic these complex forms in a down to earth, almost humorous way”
Tine Bek’s works portray a mixture of still life, found objects and sculptural forms, which all convey a tactility and sensuality that is visually alluring and appealing. Her work appeals to our instinctive desire to touch and resonate with deep emotion and introspection. Everything seems to overflow, crumble or bulge – uncontrolled, baroque forms, which brings to mind how materials and things form part of a hierarchy and a structure. Bek invites us to explore the fine balance between strength and vulnerability.
