About this artwork
The plastic "preliminary study on morbid" is a head sculpture without a real human model. This sculpture was created in 1993, before the morbid topic cycle was planned to begin, in which the content of transience was anticipated. Therefore, the assignment to this series was made afterwards. The plastic was modeled in clay and cast in concrete with a lost form of plaster. The color of the surface is the result of a later revision in 2019.

« 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.
