The inexhaustible forms and richness of nature is the source of Hilde Trip’s art. Each season offers an infinite number of seeds, leaves, feathers, tree bark and all sorts of grasses that she collects and processes into organic art forms.

Having grown up on her parents’ farm where the rhythm of sowing, growing and harvesting was a matter of course, she now focuses more consciously on specifically selecting beautiful shapes from nature. Hilde permanently captures the diverse shapes and colours in frames and arranges them in repeating patterns. It requires great concentration which she experiences as calming and sometimes even meditative. She empowers the viewer to shift their focus and look at nature with different eyes. Her “Wish Full” series meticulously captures the intricate details of dandelions just before they are taken off by the wind.
