Situated between two- and three-dimensional, Anna Hepler’s poetic sculptures, installations, and works on paper reflect her fascination with structures both fixed and ephemeral. As she describes: “I am interested in such visually cohesive forms that nevertheless contain a chaotic structure—tangles of thread, electronic circuitry, swarms of insects in flight. There is something terrifying about their massive intricacy, and something beautiful in the rhythms of their minute and repetitive detail.” Using labor-intensive methods, Hepler reconstructs the forms she observes around her, then plays with their dimensionality, creating geometric shapes that she inflates and deflates, transforming flat strips of plastic and fabric into bulbous protrusions, and producing cyanotypes and prints from her three-dimensional works. Hepler is especially taken with a latticed, spherical shape, which loosely resembles Buckminster Fuller’s geodesic dome, and which she revisits in many of her works.

位于二维和三维之间,安娜-赫普勒的诗意雕塑、装置和纸上作品反映了她对固定和短暂的结构的迷恋。正如她所描述的。"我对这种视觉上有凝聚力的形式感兴趣,但却包含一个混乱的结构--线团、电子电路、成群的昆虫在飞行。它们的巨大复杂性有一些可怕的东西,而它们的微小和重复的细节的节奏有一些美丽的东西"。使用劳动密集型的方法,赫普勒重建她观察到的周围的形式,然后玩弄它们的尺寸,创造几何形状,她充气和放气,将扁平的塑料和织物条转化为球状的突起,并从她的三维作品中制作氰化物和印刷品。赫普勒特别喜欢一种格子状的球形,它与巴克明斯特-富勒的测地穹顶松散地相似,她在她的许多作品中都重新考虑了这种形状。
