Basic Rhythms of Being

Linda Vinck is a visual artist with a long-standing and sustainably developed body of work centered around rhythm and pattern formation. The materiality of her artworks strengthened by the mixed media techniques the artist uses, demonstrate her fascination by the interplay of predictable and unpredictable micro-forms in nature, psychocorporeal transformations, dance, and contemporary composers. The impact and integration of colour and spirituality in her practice refer to her yearlong residencies in Cape Verde, South Africa, and Japan. For almost five decades Linda Vinck has been developing a consistent body of work around rhythm and pattern formation. This comprehensive publication contextualises and presents this artist's oeuvre, and introduces her prolific language as a visual artist in relation to her unique artistic identity.
