1969

With her spatial compositions and dynamic structures in cardboard and paper, Caroline Hofman (Aachen, Germany, 1969) reaches the breaking point of recognizability and alienation, moving between the imagery of the everyday object and context-free graphic structures. For Hofman, the appeal of her material lies in its unexpected richness, how a single sheet carries the potential of three-dimensionality, how a seemingly ‘neutral’ and industrially manufactured material 'breathes’, conveys a warm and tactile character.
