About this artwork
Audience is a relief-like wall object made of concrete, in which a multitude of human faces emerge densely from the surface. The individual heads are fragmentarily rendered, some suggested, some clearly modeled, and appear to exist both individually and collectively.
The work explores the tension between individuality and the masses: each facial expression carries its own emotional nuance – from thoughtfulness to tiredness to quiet attention – while… the interplay of all the figures creates a cohesive, almost urgent overall picture.
The raw materiality of the concrete, combined with a multifaceted, understated palette, reinforces the impression of density and temporality. The audience reflects on observation and being observed, belonging and anonymity, and invites contemplation of the individual's role within a community.

« 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.
