Julia Walter: Love Colour Rage Satisfaction

« I take a big piece of wood and cut it with my saw into a raw form. The decision where to cut comes quickly, intuitive, as precise as it can be and as incidental as possible. This was the first step, now I follow the feeling, a feeling that seems like an ancient knowlege of my ancestors.
Pieces of wood float in buckets of coloured water, soak in the dye, my personal driftwood. The process has started, i try not to interrupt the constant flow of action and reaction. I remember the five elements of a pentagon star, water, wood, fire, soil, metal.
I use my ability to transform and put my energy into materiality. It is a big experiment and a besotted search for the right composition. There are moments of madness, moments of relief, moments of happiness and love, it ́s all in there.«
