About this artwork
The artwork human cubes WALL 92 consists of 92 handcrafted wooden cubes made of red beech, alder, maple, walnut, laburnum, olive and chestnut.
Each individual cube was precisely sawn, its edges carefully sanded, and then joined to the next cube using beechwood dowels, glue, and clamps. The sculpture is suspended within the steel frame by a 1 mm thick stainless steel cable.
As in his previous series, "human flow" and "human nails," Hellweger creates… a harmonious whole from a multitude of individual elements. Each cube symbolizes a thought, an emotion, or a feeling in a person's life. Collectively, the cubes represent the complexity, diversity, and interconnectedness of human experience.
The steel frame has been waxed and polished for lasting protection against oxidation. Two mounting brackets on the back allow for easy and secure wall mounting.

Manfred Hellweger
Austria
« I have always been fascinated by abstracting the human body in order to depict it in a simple and elegant form. »
Manfred Hellweger is an Austrian sculptor whose works are already represented by collectors worldwide.
He is particularly known for his minimalist approach, in which he reduces forms to their essential elements.
Hellweger's work embodies the idea that nothing is permanent; everything evolves and changes. Each of his sculptures reflects a deep engagement with the materials and themes he explores.
Despite their simplicity, his works are deeply expressive and, by reducing them to the essentials, offer a metaphor for mindfulness and contentment.
