"(...) The fascination and allure of Tamara K.E.'s work cannot be easily explained. While she seeks to trigger our cultural memory with her motifs, these are not recycled images but rather random, intuitive discoveries without a specific intention or underlying ideology.

Instead, she establishes freely flowing systems of codes, signifiers, and energy fields that guide and direct the gaze toward an “unknown future.” It is about the transition into this unknown future, the process of getting there, which gives us time to reconsider what was and what is. As she herself says, "to give meaning to the whole, which in itself is 'blurry' and ‘random. (...)."
