About this artwork
A small-scale piece of work that, with the depiction of an obese figure, falls somewhat out of the cyclical representation of people on this page. It is the artist's attempt to see the body in terms of its mass and abundance and to deal with forms that are turned towards the outside. This work was modeled in clay and then poured into concrete. The surface is glazed with oil paints.

« For me, the sculpture is the enthusiasm that inanimate material begins to speak out of itself through deformation alone and suddenly belongs to a part of the living world. »
Wolfgang Eckert is a sculptor based in Germany whose works have been exhibited both nationally and in France. Fascinated by the connection between plastic-spatial relationships and the human expression that becomes evident in them, his pieces are an "observation of nature and exploration of individuality". In addition, Eckert's pieces are self-reflective and inspired by his memories. His diverse compositions are created using cement and plaster.
