"Space and light are the preferred fields of representation in Renate Hoffleit's work, although she makes space visible more through dialogue than through sheer size. In this sense, the artist's work arises in a social context, which also includes collaborative works, mostly with Michael Bach Bachtischa – as recently in a visual-acoustic installation in the Domnick Collection, Nürtingen. Hoffleit's abstracted individual sculptures are sometimes transparent (translucent) and sometimes opaque (impervious to light). However, she always plays out this range in relation to the environment, that is, the environment – such as the geological composition, the influences of light, or the vegetation – determines the material presence of the works. In the case of the solidly cast "Meadow Eggs" and the "Golden Ice," the finding can be deduced indirectly: the rigid foam mold, and thus the size of the eggs, is determined by the lime leaching rate in the Jurassic limestone per minute, as can be calculated in the Swabian Alb, measured by the vertical The drainage of precipitation, for which there are scientific studies. Now, Renate Hoffleit's empirical inclination doesn't go so far as to meticulously examine this. Thus, the dimensions of the Aich eggs actually refer to the data for the Alb eggs of the sculpture trail on the so-called "Great Alb Trail" (Swabian Alb). Those approximately 40 eggs, out of a planned edition of 60, were…"
