RYMLINGENGenesis I Rymlingen hones in on the feeling Rebecka gets when painting these works on plywood: a sort of escapism. The process often leads her into a deep flow state. Flowing, escaping — still here, of course, but at the same time far away. When Rebecka first developed this painting style, she was very intent that there should be rules governing what she could create: No straight lines. NONE. The different forms on the plywood are not to touch one another — the forms themselves being only dots and curved lines. Like a little simulation. A simplification of life, particles and waves, before they take on the complex forms they do in this world. So — Rymlingen could be a creature… Or perhaps a path... A newly formed neural pathway? Leading you to escape your old ways? It is left up to you to decide what it depicts. ARTWORK DESCRIPTION Materials Acrylic on birch plywood. Painted with acrylics on a beautiful slab of birch plywood, where the natural grain of the wood has determined how the brushes should move. Technique The painting technique devised in order to create this piece is Rebecka’s own, developed over years of curious experimentation. The technique seeks to create a sense of movement, depth, and luminosity while allowing the character of the wood itself to remain an active part of the work. Dimensions Approximately 20 × 30 cm.Frame included. Frame The frame has been hand constructed by Jakob at Lärjeå. Made from birch and treated with hardwax oil, it allows the character of the material to remain visible. A twisted brass hanging fixture provides a beautiful little detail that runs throughout the Genesis I collection.
