Line Depping

The practice of Line Depping moves between unique art works, where the irrational and abstract are free to unfold, and the furniture field, where focus is primarily on making ends meet in function, material, shape and production. In her sculptural works, the stringent, rounded wooden objects bear reference to recognizable functional items such as combs and brushes of various shapes and sizes, however in the hands of Line Depping, proportions are lovingly twisted and layers of refinement in shape and scale are added. Thus, released from their original functionality, they become purely sculptural items. In both her limited editions and commercial works, Line Depping thrives to find an interesting, insistant form that invites the viewer or user to continue to look at and explore further the object. To her, the aesthetic, perceptive and irrational is just as valuable as the rational.
