material: glas, brass place of issue: Galerie Hafemann, Wiesbaden
Die künstlerische Arbeit „hang over“ besteht aus aus dem Kontrast zwischen der Zerbrechlichkeit des Sicherheitsglases und der soliden Stärke der Messingstange, an der es hängt. Das Glas, das normalerweise als hart, transparent und unveränderlich wahrgenommen wird, wird hier durch den Prozess der Entspannung weich und sichtbar wie Stoff. Das zart hängende Glas erzeugt eine Aura der Fragilität, fast so, als ob es jederzeit in Tausend Stücke zerfallen könnte. Die Anwesenheit der Stange, die trotz des zerbrechlichen Materials standhaft bleibt, vermittelt ein Gefühl der Widerstandsfähigkeit und Stabilität.
Die Komplexität dieser Arbeit liegt in der dualen Darstellung von Transformation und Widerstandsfähigkeit. Sie fordert den Betrachter auf, über die Vielschichtigkeit von Materialität nachzudenken. Durch die Kombination von Gegensätzen regt „hang over“ eine Reflexion über die Brüchigkeit des Lebens, die Stärke in der Zerbrechlichkeit und die Widerstandsfähigkeit in der Zerbrechlichkeit an.
The artistic work „hang over“ consists of the contrast between the fragility of the safety glass and the solid strength of the brass rod on which it hangs. The glass, which is usually perceived as hard, transparent, and immutable, is softened and made visible like fabric through the process of relaxation. The delicately hanging glass creates an aura of fragility, almost as if it could shatter into a thousand pieces at any moment. The presence of the rod, which remains steadfast despite the fragile material, conveys a sense of resilience and stability.
The complexity of this work lies in the dual depiction of transformation and resilience. It prompts the viewer to contemplate the intricacies of materiality. By combining contrasts, „hang over“ encourages a reflection on the fragility of life, the strength within fragility, and the resilience within vulnerability.
