MEET THE ARTISTS | Karien Kortenhorst & Florian Appelt
Two perspectives on form and structure.
From delicate wire constructions to precisely shaped geometric forms, these two artists explore structure in entirely different ways.
Karien Kortenhorst transforms metal wire into intricate, transparent sculptures. Through bending, hammering and weaving, she creates forms in which light and surrounding space become part of the work. Her sculptures reveal how a strong material can take on an unexpectedly delicate appearance.
Florian Appelt explores the relationship between colour, structure and design. In his Rounds series, he combines precise craftsmanship with experimentation, shaping rigid foam and finishing his works with pigmented epoxy resin. The result is a distinctive interplay of geometry, material and colour.
Two unique approaches that invite us to look more closely at the possibilities of form.
Experience their work in person during our 2nd exposition at ART[s] x Nibourg Interieurs in Zwolle. Open days: October 30 & 31.
