In her recent work the images aren¹t constricted by a frame, but are set free from the traditional flat surface.These shapes hang as independent constellations on the wall, showing contrasting wild movements with quieter forms.They seem to emanate spontaneously from the process of pouring liquid plastic.However, what went on is quite the opposite. Initially the artist selects her colours with care. Then she carefully directs the pouring, controlling the movements and the right moment to stop.
This results in flowing forms with strong contrasting colours and great visual diversity where vitality and monumentality blend together. Cecile van der Heiden directly and courageously challenges her boundaries, acting and reacting, That’s the adventure.
Liquid Plastic (from 1998 onwards) Plastic formed from two components is a the basis of the latest developments in Cecile van de Heidens work. Different shapes of plastic are poured on top of each other and in contrast with the Early Plastics making,it now possible to execute large pieces.These forms have no boundaries and go beyond the limits of painting and sculpture.They hang as free constellations on the wall and can be combined into colourful installations. Recent exhibitions of these works include : the Noord Holland Biennial at the Vishal in Haarlem, gallery De Expeditie in Amsterdam, and gallery Rob de Vries in Haarlem.
