JACQUELIN HEICHERT

In my art practice I aim to find connections and highlight processes and experiences that are implicit in everyday life and contribute to an understanding of the ways in which people interact with and make sense of the world. Minute everyday situations such as what we think about when sharing an armrest or stepping onto an elevator or the mental moment of deciding, are the subject of my work. These ubiquitous moments act as sites that ground abstract thoughts or inherent processes within a context of familiarity and provide access points through which more symbolic aspects of the human experience, such as cultural practices, rituals and value systems, can be explored and examined.
