Umi 2 collage on paper Tilman’s works on paper function

Tilman’s works on paper function as an archive of the artist’s ideas and observations

The meditative quality of her application technique likely contributes to the contemplative nature of her artworks

during which the reduced formal elements of the work evolve their self-referential relationships within a new composition

They use light as an explorative and constructive tool
