About this artwork
This work continues my exploration of our relationship with the environment. It reimagines the Venus of Willendorf as a metaphorical figure and container for our planet. The original 10 cm figurine, discovered in 1908 and dating to approximately 24,000 BCE, is widely regarded as a symbol of fertility and Mother Earth.
Venus Wall-e contains a copy of the animated movie Wall-e on a USB key. The underlying meaning of WALL-E is a cautionary critique… of unchecked consumerism, corporate greed, and human reliance on technology, contrasted with the enduring power of love and curiosity.

Pierre Leichner, with a background rooted in both medicine and fine art, works across sculpture, painting, installation, BioArt, and video, blending scientific inquiry with poetic sensibility. His technique embraces organic materials, layered abstraction, and time-based processes, often inviting natural phenomena as collaborators. Playfulness and surprise give way to deeper ecological and socio-political meaning through engaging participatory works. Pierre’s art evokes vulnerability and resilience while inspiring reflection and a profound sense of interconnection between humanity, nature, and community.
