About Right After

The artwork, entitled “Right After,” was created by the artist Eva Hesse in the year 1969. It belongs to the Post-Minimalism art movement and is classified as an installation genre.

The artwork consists of numerous entangled, suspended cords that form loose, flowing loops, draping elegantly from the ceiling to various heights before terminating almost close to the ground. The cords are arranged in a seemingly chaotic yet harmoniously structured manner, creating an ethereal, web-like presence within the space. These cords cast soft shadows on the walls and the floor, accentuating the intricacies of their intersections. The overall aesthetic evokes a sense of organic growth and suspended animation, drawing viewers into a contemplation of form, space, and materiality. The use of light highlights the delicate nature of the materials, enhancing the transient beauty of the installation.
