Healing what is broken is perhaps, for Christine Aebi-Ochsner, the very basis of a creative poetic process.
After numerous exhibitions in Switzerland and abroad, and a host of articles devoted to her unique and diverse work, Christine Aebi-Ochsner wanted to make her work accessible to a wide audience in the form of a monograph. The richly illustrated work contains contributions from journalists, art historians and writers from very different backgrounds, in order to better illuminate the multiple facets of a disconcerting art. The artist's works reflect life, in a daily practice of forms of all kinds: assemblages, large-format images, the most banal everyday objects, in a reflection that is sometimes happy but also, often, marked by a certain melancholy or violence. Christine Aebi-Ochsner's installations poetically bring out what goes unnoticed, in a kind of lyrical transformation, by recycling or recovering what has been seen, found, even in a state of wear, disintegration, or breakage. In short, by repairing.
