The monochromatic palette of grays and blacks, with delicate accents of white and subtle tonal transitions, enhances the drama and mystery of the drawing. Contrasts of light and shadow model the forms, giving them a three-dimensional quality despite the flat surface of the paper. The lines are dynamic and expressive, building tension between the individual elements of the composition. Abstract shapes and non-obvious juxtapositions of objects stimulate the viewer’s imagination, encouraging the search for personal interpretations and meanings. “Saxophone” is not a literal representation of reality but rather a visual enigma that provokes reflection on the nature of form, space, and memory. This artwork is characterized by its austerity and economy of means, which is typical of many of Jolanda Jeklin’s drawings. Despite the limited color palette, the drawing is rich in nuances and subtle details that are revealed upon closer inspection. “No.1” is a proposition for lovers of abstraction and drawing who appreciate works with a strong emotional expression and intellectual depth.
Saxophone, ink, acrylic on paper, 50 x 70 cm, 2015
“Saxophone” is an intriguing artwork by Jolanda Jeklin, executed in ink and acrylic on paper with dimensions of 50 x 70 cm. The drawing is a monochromatic, almost graphic composition that combines elements of abstraction with subtle suggestions of objects and space. With her characteristic economy of expression, the artist creates a work full of tension and inner dynamism. The composition of the drawing is complex and ambiguous. Lighter, acrylic forms emerge from a dark, ink background, suggesting architectural fragments, a musical instrument, and abstract shapes. We can discern the outline of a saxophone, a fragment of a window or door frame, as well as a mysterious spiral in the upper part of the composition. However, these elements are presented in a fragmented and processed manner, which gives the work a surreal character.
