About this artwork
Larch, linden and maple.
During the gluing process, Manfred Hellweger arranged the wooden strips of different thicknesses in such a way that they taper irregularly towards the bottom and create a flowing dynamic. The mountain silhouettes were subsequently sawn out and sanded.
With this work, the artist wants to illustrate that planet Earth is subject to constant change.
Just… as the water in the stream is always in motion, all things, living beings and phenomena in the world are always changing.
Everything changes and develops, nothing stays the same.
Since this is a wall object, two screws including dowels are included for easy installation.
The surface is completely natural.
Total weight: 22.6 kg

« 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.
