Walk for Nature

ironwire and concrete / 180 x 90 x 90 cm / 2021

My sculpture "Walk for Nature" shows man in connection with nature. Nature symbolically represented in the form of a tree trunk, moulded and cast in concrete, forms the foundation of the female wire figure that seems to balance on it. We humans are dependent on nature, it forms the basis of our lives, without which we cannot exist. Therefore, we should be careful not to disturb its delicate balance. In these present uncertain times, which make us humans live unnaturally and keep our distance, she meets us completely transparently with arms wide open and invites us to come close to her. On closer inspection through her filigree body shell, her innermost being appears as an imaginary space that leaves us free to make our own mental interpretations.
"Walk for Nature" can be understood both as a reminder to people to respect nature, but also as an invitation to us to meet each other in love without fear.

Peace comes from within" is a large wire head resting on a concrete base, which is designed in the form of a three-dimensional peace sign. 

The base (neck of the head) resembles a building with entrances and exits, as well as windows where paths can be seen that lead into the interior and extend three-dimensionally in different directions.

Senza Titolo front

object / Ironwire, Wood, Paper; Acrylic and Concrete, 72 x 92 x10 cm 

This object shows the inside and outside of a human abstract body, but at the same time it looks like a landscape with paths and courses.
Three-dimensional paths made of iron wire on the front of the object symbolize the ups and downs of human life, revealing the inner self. At the same time, the course of these paths (of life) forms an abstract human silhouette.
On the back side of the object the closed surface appears like a human silhouette and at the same time like a hilly landscape with paths and canyons. The colored layer of paper at first hides what is hidden behind it, like a human skin.

Object should be exhibited on a pedestal standing free in the room, pedestal in the dimensions:  Height / width / depth ( 100 x 95 x 50 cm is included.

"The Way"eine zweiteilige Skulptur aus Beton und Draht, Dimension: ca. 145 x 50 x 25 cm

Zu sehen sind Aufnahmen meiner noch unvollendeten, zweiteiligen Skulptur “The Way“ aus Beton und Eisendraht. Die beiden Hälften dieses Objekts symbolisieren positive und negative Aspekte des Lebens, die uns begegnen. Für mich spannend hierbei ist der Weg, der durch die Mitte führt, es gibt einen Anfang, ein Ende und ein Dazwischen- den Raum für eigene Interpretationen und Geschichten...

Die Skulptur ist noch unvollendet, es entstehen gerade kubische Aufbauten aus Draht, die  verschiedene Ebenen aufweisen und eine spannende, räumliche Tiefe bewirken, jedoch gleichzeitig vollkommen transparent erscheinen.

Durch diese räumliche Tiefe und das Licht-Schatten-Spiel erscheint der Weg hindurch noch eindrucksvoller und intensiver...

Skulptur wird gegen Ende Oktober vollendet.

Ausgestellt wird sie im Rahmen der Ausstellung "Neu x 6" im 160 qm großen, lichten Saal im Atelierhaus Aachen e.V. , Vernissage ist am 19 November...

Multicultural Head

sculpture / ironwire, acryliclack and concrete , 30 x 40 x 65cm / sold to an collector

This project was about letting people from different backgrounds work together on a large sculpture to give them the opportunity to meet each other. A good opportunity for this was my course "3D Art" in the context of the project "Stars of the Suburbs" at the Aachener Volkshochschule, where I worked for 3 weeks as a lecturer with young refugees aged 14 to 18 years. This wire project started in the last week of the course.
So I started by casting the first wires into a concrete base, so that the first contours of the head could be seen. Then I looked for volunteers in the course to help me shape the head further out of wire.

Two Africans from Eritrea (Siem Ghrymay, Filmon Mehari) and an Afghan girl (Lama Alhamad) helped me to shape the head. So the 4 of us were working on this work at the same time, which in itself was a quiet dialogue and a very successful experiment.
