Sandra Kranich’s work is a unique combination of drawing, sculpture, and fireworks. Starting with geometric drawings and “space architectures,” she develops three-dimensional sculptures and installations in which she uses fireworks as a painterly and performative medium. She allows seemingly constructive paintings and sculptures to explode in a controlled or even unexpected manner. Only through these transformation processes do the actual works of art emerge, marked by the light of the fire, by traces of soot, or by the shape-shifting force of the explosion. Deformation and destruction become an artistic, productive moment.
Our new edition “Double Fire” depicts a blazing campfire, the archaic ancestor, so to speak, of contemporary high-tech fireworks. This small-edition fine art print on photographic paper was created as a digital collage from two scanned analog image sources: a pencil drawing of burning branches on a bed of pebbles, and a pyrotechnic-controlled burn and then colored in warm red and yellow tones.
