Walkable Traces, 1979 Animation sculpture, building art 7 parts, concrete School playground, Landfermann-Gymnasium in Duisburg |

The sculptures are based on archaic ruins that function as traces of bygone eras. Their deliberate monochrome quality, derived from the grey concrete, likewise emphasizes the archaic element. They form a new, primitive architecture and setting.
Their form radiates an inherent calm and power. These elementary, organic sculptures stand between sober, functional buildings. They promote relaxation and communication amongst observers. |
