Expressive/LyricalAbstracts

Intense, contrasted color areas, tangled layers of lines and stains, all interwoven with one another and created with energetic gestures – these are the characteristics of Steffa Reis’ abstract expressive art. These works combine both a spontaneous and controlled work process, and often blend elements of drawing and painting – lines and patches. This signature feature is especially noticeable in the works created in oil pastel on paper (with touches of additional media), a technique in which she excels.

A parallel body of works is typified by similar, but more restrained qualities – transparent colors, softer brushstrokes, and amorphous forms. Overall, these exude an ethereal quality and epitomize this artist’s version of a more lyrical abstraction.
