Katharina Heinrich's braided objects resemble fabrics or carpets and yet they are made of plastic, lead and foam rubber. Her sculptural work is about condensing lines (wire, bands, ropes) into surfaces or bodies, the interplay of condensation and transparency. The plaited structures and nets are seen as a visualisation of any other system (social system, computer network, copy loop, human memory).
Katharina Heinrich, born 1964 in Linz, lives in Vienna
