TO BEGIN WITH A STONE AND END UP WITH A PLANET

New works by CECILIA HULTMAN (SE)


Cecilia Hultman (b. 1985, S) works primarily with drawing and often employs a distinct from of poetic and philosophical language in her work. Starting with esoteric theoretical views found in natural science, Hultman presents these considerable subjects in a beautiful, detailed and highly skilled manner.
 
To Begin With A Stone And End Up With A Planet sees Hultman explore the balance between subtle forms of intervention and illustrative method. Through a three-dimensional presentation she investigates a correspondence between drawing and objects chosen from nature.
 
Hultman says “I regularly ask myself if it is necessary to grasp theory as it was originally meant to be perceived and if language based descriptions can become equivalent to other results of reflection and expression.
For GREEN IS GOLD my work has been influenced by the geological term Mass Movement. This is a theoretical description that comes from geology and geomorphology (the scientific study of landforms and the process that shapes them) but has, as a term, potential to refer to more than pure geology. I like when things can turn out to have precise and universal connotations. With beauty, reality and concept there are possibilities to put focus on our existence in a more reflective and metaphoric way. Sometimes science works better as poetry, and poetry might need a tight and conceptual framing for not losing the multilayered attraction.”
 
Cecilia Hultman is an MA student at Konstfack, Stockholm. Hultman received the Bror Hjorth’s Drawing Grant in 2012 and was recently awarded the culture grant from Sundsvall Municipality. Recent exhibitions include Bror Hjorths Hus (Uppsala, 2012), Galleri Blunk (Trondheim, 2012), Galleri Pictura (Lund, 2012). Cecilia Hultman has also presented sound works in the Norwegian program NOVA (2012/2013) and was interviewed in the New York Art and Fashion Magazine VAGA (2012).
