Stability and Lightness – Objects from Paper and Wire

September 4 -6, 2026 at Kunstakademie Eigenart in Bad Heilbrunn. 

Paper is a versatile material: it is lightweight, flexible, and at the same time stable enough to grow into three-dimensional forms. In combination with wire, objects emerge in the course with Ines Seidel that move between line and surface, transparency and solidity, plane and volume. This connection opens up a wide field of artistic possibilities – sometimes delicate and poetic, sometimes stable and space-filling. We use various techniques to join paper and wire together and playfully explore their expressive power: How much willfulness do we allow the materials? How much volume and stability does an object need? How does something like poetic lightness emerge? These are questions that will guide us – and which we will answer with wire, paper, wallpaper paste, and sometimes also with yarn and ink.

Everyone who enjoys experimenting with materials and creating with their hands is welcome in the course.
