The March 2007 issue of American Art Collector magazine profiled Silke Henkel Wallace in an article entitled, "Ties that Bind." The article deals with Silke's love of the act of painting: "To her, throwing paint around and making marks on canvas is an essential par of the painting process. That is also why she incorporates handwriting in some of the painting and shows the drips of paint on many of her works."
The article's main focus is about Henkel Wallace's impressionistic portraits of farm animals that come from recurring images of her childhood. The artist explains the series, as follows: "My painting is deeply influenced by my German roots and my upbringing in Germany, both of which are profoundly connected to the land: the woods, the fieds, the animals and the seasons ... A year ago I started to work on a series of paintings that reflect core elements of this culture and its everyday rituals, primarily those concerning food." She talks about going back to Germany to kindle her memories and explore the connection between food and culture by interviewing older women. "Just as I felt emptiness at not having a connection to my past, they had felt fulfillment upon passing their storeis on to the future. It became clear to me that this intergenerational continuity is a basic human need."
