MAYU
Mayu is a series of mixed media paintings that pull from the natural linear patterns created in nature. Wicki was very inspired by the sky and it’s ever changing shapes due to clouds and weather. Using neon brings an utterly man-made component to recreate a geometric pattern that happens all the time in the sky. Too often in this world we forget how much inspiration nature holds as we cling to the digital materials all day long.

INFINIUM
“Daniela Wicki’s work has evolved in the last few years from passionate exuberance to a more subtle and thoughtful approach. In the past she almost always painted on canvas, whereas, now she is exploring a new range of mediums and materials. I think her new work is the best she has ever done. It is exciting and a delight to see her continually evolves while still retaining her passion. “

DYNAMIC REFLECTION
Dynamic Reflection #21,
Laser Etching on Iridescent Fabric, 45” x 23”
Daniela Wicki’s “Dynamic Reflection” is composed of artworks which are visually altered depending on the viewer’s spatial relation to the work. Made up of iridescent fabric, these silvery pieces reflect the movement of everyday life. This weave of meditative yet vigorous journey for the eyes adds a certain type of animation rarely seen in classical artwork. The exploration that “Dynamic Reflection” connects to a great degree with today’s changing world in a spirited, somewhat unexpected fashion. This new series is very geometrical compared with Daniela Wicki’s previous work. There are shapes intertwined with empty space that form an abstract structure. “Dynamic Reflection” is a reflection of the different parts of the sculptures Daniela Wicki is working on, as seen on a hi-tech, silvery, iridescent fabric with particles of glass that appear to reflect light differently, depending on one’s viewing position. As in her previous work, the artist continues on her search for showing the different perspectives that as individuals, each of us can envision.

CONCENTRIC PATHS
“Daniela Wicki has been making art embedded in the traditional concerns of Abstraction. Her marvelously idiosyncratic paintings are intriguing investigations of color, light and form. Full of energy and imagination, the works reveal the artist’s subconscious feeling of abstract process and material surface. Ms. Wicki uses color as an instrument in her discovery of essential patterns and structures. One sees in the paintings a relationship to the overwhelming forces of nature; the chaos of a churning ocean, the powerful colors of the sunset. We as viewers are offered a bridge between the actual world and the artistic world that is fresh, ambitious and intriguing.”

BREEZE
“Intuition is essential for good abstract painting. One must be able to follow one’s instincts about the picture even if they do not seem to make sense. Creativity is a leap, letting go of our attachment to results to instead focus on the process. Creativity occurs when the mind is focused on the activity with confidence. The result of the activity is the quality of the mind itself. Daniela Wicki has as much of an intuitive understanding of this process as any artist I’ve worked with. Her enormous talent is evident in her most recent paintings. There is a weightless quality to these paintings, a seamlessness that is evidence of their goodness. Amorphous spaces are created as hot and cold colors jostle for position. These are very strong abstract paintings. Daniela’s sensitivity to color and surface are the defining characteristics.”
