Utilisant l’installation et la sculpture, Karolin Schwab explore les différentes manières dont nous percevons un paysage, comme un espace dans lequel le spectateur entre en relation avec un environnement en constante évolution.
Ses œuvres questionnent le mouvement et sa délicatesse, tout en traitant l’immobilité. Les formes et les lignes minimalistes qu'elle met délibérément dans un certain contexte forment une sorte de cadre ou de pont, créant ainsi une connexion entre l'homme et la nature.
Les cercles récurrents font référence à des lentilles, des loupes, représentations du spectateur admirant un tableau pour y découvrir une partie de son soi intérieur. Regarder, remarquer, sentir.
L’artiste souhaite sensibiliser le spectateur à ce qui se passe autour, en termes de lumière, de vent, de matière, d'espace, de changement de couleur ou de perspective. Le récit sous-jacent de l'œuvre est celui qui parle de changement et qui change avec chaque nouvel environnement et chaque personne qui le rencontre.
