Hans Sieverding is a German artist whose work explores the space between observation and understanding. Drawing from overlooked sources such as news photographs, old Polaroids, street debris, and everyday moments, he gives quiet, mundane imagery a heightened presence. His work is held in collections including the Grand Rapids Art Museum and San Jose Museum of Art.
German artist Hans Sieverding arrived at Aurobora where he created monotypes and unique woodcut prints that explore the zone between what is observed and what is comprehended. By examining the mundane moment, the inconsequential black & white news photo, detritus on a street corner, an old poloroid, Sieverding turns the power of observation into a pathway towards a new relationship between artist, viewer and object. This allows the artist to infuse importance to the overlooked and lends Sieverding’s works on paper a powerful presence of their own.
