Hilma Af Klint + Mirroring; Draw or Paint Your Way to Symmetry
Class experience
This one time class will introduce learners to the artwork and biography of mystic painter, Hilma af Klint. Truly a pioneer of abstraction, Klint utilizes many techniques found in Form drawing. Her connection to Rudolph Steiner, is essentially a straight line. Although she was deterred from painting in abstraction after a studio visit from Steiner, she continued to practice mirroring before and after this period. This drawing technique is codified in Steiner’s educational methods....
We will explore the life and work of abstract originator, Hilma af Klint. Participants will be able to identify distinct strategies in Klint’s work, and implement these same approaches in their own in class project. Students will practice basic, intermediate, and advanced mirroring techniques. This approach to drawing is a subsequent teacher of fractions and proportion, as learners create designs that are intricate and accurate. The presentation will be shared with all of our artists during and after the class, so that students can share their experiences with others, refer back to class material, or take a deeper dive into video and still segments on their own time.
