Christiane Wilhelm
Born 1954 in Rostock, germany
Christiane Wilhelm is inspired both by the form and the surface treatment, which in her hands leads to unconventional shapes in combination with individual surface treatments that create a harmonious whole. Her pieces have been thought through down the smallest detail and they have a certain sense of movement, an almost dance-like quality.”
