Stephanie Temma Hier interviewed for Juliet

"In her most recent work, Stephanie Temma Hier explores the porous boundary between painting and sculpture, bringing painted images and ceramic structures into dialogue in hybrid compositions that challenge the image's two-dimensionality. Swan Song unfolds as a unified narrative, in which frames, household objects, and recurring figures combine to construct an imagery suspended between the everyday and the alienated.Through a practice that intertwines different temporalities—the immediacy of painting and the irreversible slowness of ceramics—the exhibition reflects on the themes of transformation, consumption, and the passage of time, evoking an end that does not coincide with closure, but with an opening to new narrative and formal possibilities." - Margherita Artoni
