Hildegard Skowasch's work is characterized by considerable liberty: neither material nor medium determines function or expression. Her artworks form a surreal world. The artist works in various mediums such as drawing, sculpture, and installations, creating abstract worlds that are detached from any context. She herself calls her works "improvisations" - she combines various elements together and keeps re-working them until they become unified. The artist embraces errors and accidents as an inherent part of her creative process. Her amorphous paper sculptures are magical, witty, and sometimes disturbing. They form unique tableaux, inviting an audience to interact, which becomes an act of improvisation itself.
