About this artwork
The works "human flow WALL #7-12" consist of the wood types maple, cherry and mahogany.
The veneers were connected with each other through a precise, planned project in such a way that they taper irregularly towards the bottom and thus create a flowing dynamic.
"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.
The surface of the sculpture is planed and left natural.
The frame is made of basswood and has no background plate.
In addition, the frame was covered in several layers with white acrylic paint.

« I have always been fascinated by abstracting the human body in order to depict it in a simple and elegant form. »
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.
