Tanya Reinli, Druck, 2019, blown cut glass, wood, steel plate, found objects, LED lights, spray paint

My work explores the Ludic ("play") in the context of expanded painting. This floor sculpture “Druck” brings together modernist tropes of reductive colour and geometric abstraction with the surprising element of delicately coloured hand-blown glass bubbles to explore the idea of mass, compression and surface illusion. My work uses 'play' as the foundation of making, combining different forms and materials to bring attention to their spatial and illusionistic qualities.
