About this artwork
This wall object made of oak and raw leather from 2020 with the title "Dystopia" is the first work by Sven Schilling that is completely covered with raw leather. The two-part work, which remains connected by leather cords, is irritated by a peculiar language of materials, which on the one hand seems very familiar and is still difficult to classify. The simple, almost objective formal language reinforces the impression of being opposed to something…
"familiar" that one believes to remember.

« 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.
