The work is captivated by the clear-cut shapes of irregular geometries and surfaces made up of straight lines, edges and curves, and ranging from pale to vivid colours gathered together in pairs or larger constellations seemingly floating on different formats of blank paper. For generating these shapes, Gestering draws directly “with scissors in colour”, whereby, unlike the painter Henri Matisse quoted here, she uses a prefabricated colour palette taken from an everyday medium: regularly published daily and weekly newspapers.
