References to the specific attributes of sites and spaces and the investigation of the expressive potential of man-made fibres, of industrial, common and everyday material, as well as the play with surfaces and textures are important elements in Gertraud Enzingers work. In her space filling installations, her small format objects and her works of photography, she uses light as essential instrument and vehicle of information.
