About this artwork
Through precise, planned planning, the strips were connected to each other in such a way that they taper off irregularly towards the bottom, thereby creating a flowing dynamic.
“mind flow” was derived from the aphorism of the Greek natural philosopher Heraclitus of Ephesus: “Pantha rhei” – everything flows.
Just as the water in a stream… is always moving, all things, living beings and phenomena in the world are always changing.
Everything changes and develops, nothing stays the same.
The surface of this sculpture is completely natural.
The upper area was worked with carving chisels, resulting in a smooth surface.
In contrast, the inner surfaces were roughly rasped and sanded.
All sculptures by Manfred Hellweger are unique.

« 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.
