The glow of flowers

“The glow of flowers In the darkened exhibition space, the work „Lake” from 2020/21
surprises, an oversized landscape format composed of individual picture panels, which allows an unexpectedly intense colour experience under black light: A few water lilies are captured, which are reflected on a dark shimmering water surface, and over which
small points of light seem to buzz like fireflies. The red and white-pink petals shine and form a sharp contrast to the black, blue and green tones of this idyllic-looking water landscape. It almost seems as if Nicole Jutka has taken a trip to the alien world Pandora from James Cameron’s film „Avatar” for this nature excerpt. “By  Dr. Anita Shah, curator, art historian, museum director
