In her pictures petra winterkamp develops suggestive formations from colors,lines and signs that do not illustrate, but create new independent areas of association.feed from any mimetic objectives, the painter creates an interply of picture and writing or number by means of the primacy of color.wherever she makes white dominate, her pictures have at times the effect of finds bearing secret messages or recall inscriptions on ancient masonry.wherever she uses ultramarine or cadmium as pure pigment, behind the level of the signs she produces a forceful luminosity, which seems to come from the interior of the mpictures, from an indistinct depth.
