Other artworks by Manfred Hellweger
The artist firmly connected the individual strips of different lengths made of local larch with a complex and time-consuming gluing technique.
The cavities between the strips provide insights into the interior, in some cases you can even see right through.
In addition, the interplay of different lengths and distances between the strips creates a special dynamic that seems to be constantly in motion.
"Human flow" was derived from the aphorism… of the Greek natural philosopher Heraclitus of Ephesus: "Pantha rhei" - everything flows.
Just as the water in the stream is always in motion, so all things, living beings and phenomena in the world are always changing.
Everything changes and evolves, nothing stays the same.
"Hyperion" comes from Greek mythology and is the name of one of the 82 known moons of Saturn.
