Kathrin Sachse - ‘Configuration of Dissolution’

In her constant search for new perspectives on the world, artist Kathrin Sachse has turned her attention to science in her latest works. In her exhibition, currently on display in the unique setting of the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry, she takes her own unique look at the intertwining of art and science. In her view, both fields interact in their endeavour to understand the complexity of things. In doing so, they develop equally unusual hypotheses and pose difficult questions to the public. With her abstract photography, Kathrin Sachse immerses herself in the microcosm and macrocosm of existence in a style that is entirely her own – as a hunter of hidden treasures, a craftswoman who incorporates steel, brass and copper into her unusual concept, and then breathes philosophical life into the whole with special titles that challenge and fascinate the viewer in equal measure. With openness and curiosity, she develops her detailed works in order to engage her visitors in a discourse on the philosophy of science and art. After more than 50 exhibitions at home and abroad, she invites you to an inspiring exchange in her major solo exhibition.
