"TRACES OF MAKING (UNBROKEN NIGHT) 12. December 2018" Drawing

The free use of his own resources is the fundamental disposition in which Christoph Robausch's works are created. Standing outside the traditional art world, Robausch ventures into the open and unsupported realm. Without fanfare, solely from the inherent potential, his sculptures, wall objects, and relief-like panel paintings emerge. For his metal sculptures and wall objects, Robausch uses aluminum components of a thickness that he can still shape by hand. He enjoys reworking earlier pieces, deforming and retuning them. The open nature of the possible is also the driving force behind his translation of physical works into digital, dynamic worlds. Currently, with his series "Future Origin - Oraculum," he is rediscovering his initial working method, strongly influenced by the inherent qualities of the materials. The unpredictable immediacy shines through the works of this enigmatic series. For these flat sculptures on canvas, Robausch uses a highly heat-resistant, synthetic wax. It essentially petrifies as it solidifies on the raw canvas. For further surface treatment – ​​both canvas and metal – ink, iron rust, and copper patina are preferred due to their vibrancy and unpredictability.
