Description
This publication presents thirty-seven charcoal, pastel and oil pastel drawings of roses created by Cologne-based artist Sabine Moritz between 2004 and 2009. The drawings are accompanied by poems by Adam Zagajewski and William Blake. With a regularity that approaches an everyday activity, Moritz makes studies of flowers in her home and studio in part as a discipline to practise and explore observation and techniques of representation, in part a way to reflect, contemplate and simply enjoy the flowers.These studies are an important aspect of Moritz s wider practice, which addresses themes such as man and nature, man and machine, and the military and the landscape
