SHIFTINGS - Céline Vahsen

The artist Céline Vahsen uses textile techniques to create pictorial compositions that are rooted in the materiality of her medium. She stretches woven canvases, dyed with natural coloring, onto a square format, which transforms them into vibrating, expressive works. About Her pieces emphasise the autonomy of the textile medium, which plays a central role in her practice. I n 2022, she won the regional prize of the Feminist Art Prize organized by IKOB. Four years later, she has developed an exhibition for IKOB tailored to the spatial and contextual conditions of the institution. New works enter into dialogue with existing ones, opening up a multi-layered exploration of materiality, form, and perception. The presentation highlights both continuities and developments in her artistic practice and invites viewers to discover her textile work as an independent visual language.
