Open Until the End: An Exhibition Between Tree, Line, and Density

On June 12, 2026, the expressive visual language of Sigrid Engel meets the collages and drawings of Imke Brunzema at Raumstation Bielefeld. The exhibition "Open Until the End" combines woodcuts, drawings, and collages into a concentrated art experience that focuses on nature observation, processuality, and formal tension.

Between Cemetery Lime and Image Space

The starting point of the presentation is the cemetery lime tree in Reelkirchen, a tree about 700 years old, whose movements, faces, shapes, and figures Sigrid Engel condenses in woodcut and drawing. The works offer a glimpse into organic structures, bark, growth, and trace. Especially in the medium of printmaking, a special power unfolds here: The line becomes movement, the material becomes memory, the form becomes narrative.

Collage as Counter Voice, Drawing as Resonance

Imke Brunzema complements this visual world with collages and drawings that contrast and also expand upon it. Collage here means not only montage but curated friction: Paper fragments, marks, and layers create an exhibition atmosphere where perception and association intertwine closely. Thus, a dialogue arises between two artistic handwritings, living from the fragment, rhythm, and openness of the process.

The Raumstation as Project Space

The Raumstation has been a place for exhibitions, artistic experiments, and cultural education in Bielefeld for years. As a project space, it provides an environment where painting, drawing, installation, and printmaking operate in close proximity to the audience. This proximity also shapes the viewing of the works: The pieces appear not distant but approachable, focused, and immediately anchored in the space.

Art Historical Interpretation: Nature Motif and Process Aesthetics

Engel's works stand in a tradition where the nature motif appears not illustratively but as a bearer of existential experience. Tree bodies, feeding traces, and organic lines become signs of time, change, and vulnerability. The exhibition thus shows a contemporary form of drawing that intertwines observation, material study, and aesthetic experience.

Conclusion

"Open Until the End" invites you to a quiet, intense, and at the same time sensually charged exhibition experience. Those interested in drawing, woodcut, collage, and art in the sign of nature and form will find a remarkable position in contemporary regional art. A visit to the Raumstation is definitely worthwhile live, as the spatial presence of these works unfolds their full effect.
