Ilka Helmig - Petites Perceptions
@ilkahelmig hat fotografische, zeichnerische und installative Arbeiten entwickelt, die sich mit Wachstumsprozessen, visuellen Strukturen und den Grenzen der Wahrnehmung auseinandersetzen. Dieses von Helmig selbst konzipierte und gestaltete Buch versammelt eine Auswahl dieser Bildserien aus dem Zeitraum von 2022 bis 2025.
Durch einen Textbeitrag von Katie Eva Gaj @katie.eva werden Helmigs Arbeiten unter dem Leitgedanken von Leibniz‘ „petites perceptions“ gelesen: jenen unmerklich kleinen Wahrnehmungen, die sich zu Bewusstsein verdichten. Wie werden Formen visuell wahrnehmbar? Welche Ordnungen entstehen im Übergang zwischen Regelhaftigkeit und Zufall? Die versammelten Bilder machen sichtbar, wie Struktur sich in Zeichnung, Fotografie und Installation manifestiert – nicht als Illustration einer Theorie, sondern als eigene visuelle Recherche.

Finissage WeGetCloser, Sun 20 July, 4 pm
Stoff-Pavillon Köln
With the second edition of WeGetCloser, artists will find a place in the listed Stoff-Pavillon Köln that allows artistic interventions in situ, in vitro, in planta, to grow together with the architectural organism of the 1950s glass landmark.
In this interdisciplinary and intercultural exhibition, we encounter artists and their works - from performance, sculpture, painting, digital art and installation to works that oscillate between all these media. Artists such as Carolin Eidner, Roy Mordechay, Sarah Kürten, Mounir Ayache and Ilka Helmig, meet in the idea of dialogue, whether out of their practice or through their simultaneous presence in the exhibition space. As part of an ongoing series, WeGetCloser 2 marks a processual continuation of the curatorial concept that began with the debut at the Fahrbereitschaft Berlin (2024) and complements the field of participatory and site-specific practices. The format functions less as a fixed structure and more as a space of possibility, focussing on collective proximity, processual synergy and situational presence. A fourth practice is thus articulated in the course of the exhibition, which extends beyond the familiar modes in situ, in vitro, in planta: in tuto - a state in which the work exists not only in the space, but with it, through it and as part of a larger context.

/// 59th Exhibition ///
At foryouandyourcustomers in Essen, a crossover between Armin Hartenstein and @ilkahelmig is on view from February to December 2023.
A dynamic dialogue between painting, drawing, collage, and spatial installation:
Armin Hartenstein and Ilka Helmig meet in their shared exploration of the three-dimensional – between illusion and structure, fiction and research.
curated by Torsten Obrist
