Drawings form the foundation of Stefanie Heinze’s painting process, with the composition of each painting deriving from a companion work on paper. Heinze is continuously drawing, working from life, the body, memory and imagination, with the resultant pieces being torn up and then collaged to create something new. These are arranged and then projected so that the artist can transfer the image onto canvas. The drawings are often shown alongside the paintings in her exhibitions, with many presented as two-sided works mounted on a plinth.
