"All works crayons, graphite, and charcoal on paper."--Title page verso.

"It is said that Paradise exists based on the idea of separation. Paradise is here, contrasted with the idea that Dystopia is Not There. Paradise can only exist when fenced in.The borders between Utopia and Lurking Danger are both what creates Paradise, and destroy it. The boundaries blur. There is not one way of reading. The motifs in Ringers work can render themselves opaque, held between daylight, darkness, and twilight. Entre Chien Et Loup, when a distinction between the two is no longer possible, nothing becomes everything, and the familiar turns into potential danger. Based on the Life Reform Movement in Germany and Switzerland in 1900 Sylvie Ringer reinterprets landscapes and objects. The drawn image becomes a stage on which all stakeholders have equal rights: landscape, people, animals, organic structures, and fields of vision oscillate between depth and surface, figuration and abstraction, seriousness and playful humor. A nature that gets out of hand and strikes back, a departure and vanishing point, perspective, and resolution of certainties. A landscape is a state of mind, alchemy."--Artist's website.
