From Arts Fort Worth:
“Malleable Forms is an ongoing painting exploration of touch and space. In this body of work, Heinemann continues her journey to overcome the obstacles of separation by dissolving the boundaries between self, environment, and all bodies in motion. “I blur land/body divisions and investigate the territory where magic and nature mingle. The movement of water lends itself to my work, much like the slow sculpting of mountains and caves. Through a spiritual painting process that emulates the physical practice of mediumship, I make work that references the natural world, but delays recognition.”
Heinemann’s large-scale, water-based paintings on raw canvas range from 4 to 9 feet tall, enveloping the viewer in dreamlike landscapes that are meant to extend sensory experiences to include other bodies in the environment. “Through large-scale, water-based painting, my work straddles abstraction and figuration, blurs boundaries, and resists stable structures. My work follows the tradition of female abstract expressionists and the Sublime, but it does not seek to overwhelm. Instead, it exists in spaces like a low hum, requiring a sensitivity for viewing.” “
