About this artwork
The wall-mounted piece consists of individually crafted and glued cubes of larch wood, whose natural grain forms a vibrant yet serene grid. A circular recess opens up the surface and draws the eye to the central sculpture made of welded wire nails. The meticulously crafted head and shoulders reveal a simplified human form.
The nails are sealed with matte acrylic polish to prevent oxidation. The larch wood is treated with Scandic Oil, thus permanently… preserving its natural color.
human nails WALL V addresses the constant change of human existence.
The modular wooden structure represents growth and development, while the dense nail figure marks a moment in ongoing change.

« 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.
