About this artwork
The interplay between the metallic, the vegetable and the animal is not only attractive in terms of form.
When it comes into contact with the iron, the wood turns black and when the wood moves, the animal skins can be stretched like the strings of an instrument.
At the same time, each of the materials arouses cultural-historical associations that go back to antiquity and underline the archaic and sometimes almost demonic flair that Sven Schilling's… mostly titled sculptures exude.

« I am an artist who works innovatively and unconventionally with familiar natural materials. Rough and delicate, nature is the teacher! Sensual art that touches. »
Sven Schilling is a German sculptor whose works explore the connection between man and nature, the integration of man into the cosmos as it is formulated in anthroposophy. His compositions are exclusively created using oak, iron, and leather because he is fascinated by their feel. Also, Schilling prefers these materials as they have significance in the history of craftsmanship as well as in religions and myths.
