Gerda SMIT (Utrecht 1934 - Eindhoven 2004)
Followed her education at the Free Academy in Eindhoven (Graphics department) Gerda Smit is guided by her feelings in her work. She is touched by the things that happen around her and in the world. In this way the people and animals from her environment always appear in her work. In the drypoint technique, which Gerda Smit uses, lines are applied to a metal plate with a sharp metal marker, without using an acid solution. The resulting shallow grooves with burrs produce a typical velvety tone on the paper being printed on. The colors in the print are obtained by printing the etching plate on the paper in different colorways. Without wishing to be a social indictment, her original works and etchings indicate the defenselessness of humans and animals against injustice. For example, the figures in her work are often - literally and figuratively - immature. Gerda's work is reminiscent of na_eve art: lovely figurative representations that radiate a childlike innocence. Her human figures, which are simultaneously primitive and schematically indicated, come to life in a touching silence.
