She is a painter as she is a sculptor, that is to say that she works with space, or more so, allows the space to work. She allows it to present itself as well within a flat surface, as within dimensions with volume by the solicitation of her incisive gestures. In painting, she awakens intimate feelings that oscillate between depth and surface, in a fascinating game of light. But these gestures, that for a painter, remain mute in the secret relationship with canvas, become musical and decisive when Wock rediscovers the resemblance with her natal country, sculpture: the material, like herself, teaches rejoicing always in the discovery of life that never intimidates. This is without doubt why when one meets the works of Gwen Wock, one looks at them as friends.
