Jorinde Voigt is an artist born in Frankfurt, Germany and working in Berlin. Her works fall into in an undefinable area between drawing and writing. They seem more like diagrams or lists. But the beauty and rhythm of each piece takes you in like an ocean current. Voigt is best known for her graceful spiraling arcs and parallel looped lines, stretched and interwoven, bursting across the page as if caught up in a strange temporal chain reaction. They are part timeline, part electronic wiring diagram, part exotic system of musical notation which chronicles subjective experience. Her work seems to be both familiar and totally new, controlled yet wild and unhinged. "My work is like music," she says. "You can enjoy it without being able to read the score."
