Geiger's practice as a sculptor is intuitive and driven by the organic encounter between the materials she uses: steel, stone, brass and mirror. Inspired by the artisanal traditions of iron, engraving and brass casting, Geiger responds to the materials’ natural imperfections and energy to create original and unexpected contemporary shapes.
Geiger looks for what is alive in the materials, working with what their textures and presence invite. In contact with the raw matter, she leaves a place for instinct; a connection between the tactile world and the mind is created, from which the forms that emerge maintain an unstable balance specific to nature. A personal sensorial experience translates into a unique and powerful piece of art.
