About this artwork
human nails
Similar to the “human flow” sculpture series, Manfred Hellweger also creates a whole from many individual parts.
Each nail represents a thought, an emotion, or a feeling in a person's life.
A special eye-catcher is created by using an antique wagon drawbar as a base. The work of art appears archaic and modern at the same time and brings a powerful, emotional presence into every room.
The steel sculpture was treated with several… layers of matt acrylic varnish to avoid oxidation. The antique wagon drawbar and the base plate made of Corten steel are natural.
Total weight: 30.7 kg
All of Manfred Hellweger's sculptures are unique.

« 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.
