<b>Cecilia Rebergen<\/b><br \/>The work of Cecilia Rebergen is characterized by a playful mischief. By breaking with<br \/>rules, she explores the limits of her material, the idea and herself as an artist. For<br \/>her, letting go of expectations and wishes is the only way to be able to freely play<br \/>with her work. In doing so, she accepts the risks her actions entail, with all the<br \/>distorting, possibly destructive consequences. While crafting a sculpture as a<br \/>wrestling match, the right flow substantially determines the quality of the final result.An entirely different kind of phase precedes it. That phase is characterized by<br \/>deepening concentration and care. Old manuscripts and other writings are the<br \/>starting point in her recent work. Her painted letters and signs are an investigation<br \/>into the essence of writing. By painting a script, she attempts to understand it. The<br \/>confluence of sophisticated cultural-historical research and primal physicality in her<br \/>work makes for grand, twisted yet elegant sculptures. The tension this clash of<br \/>opposites causes, for Rebergen, touches the essence of the art and humanity.The works of Rebergen can be found in private and public collections. She exhibits<br \/>her work nationally and internationally and is a member of the Advisory Board for<br \/>Visual Art of the municipality of Utrecht.<br \/>Cecilia Rebergen graduated from the HKU, the Netherlands.<br \/>She works at Airbase Soesterberg, the Netherlands.<br \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
