ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Killing with kindness" was made on a 120x150 cm canvas (380 gsm cotton) with a mixed technique of watercolor and acrylic paints and ducat double gold 23 carat. The artist has depicted here a "Zwieselwuchs", which is a special form of stem growth on trees. This is colloquially called "Zwiesel". Here the tree forms its trunk no longer from one, but from two or more shoots. The reasons why trees form a twig vary greatly. Injuries in the youth, hereditary factors, wind breakage are only some examples. The lettering "Killing with kindness" bordered with gold leaf (ducat double gold 23 carat) extends over the entire painting. Being kind costs nothing and makes the world a better place. Not getting carried away by the energy of a bad-tempered counterpart and responding with kindness shows strength and often works wonders. As in the case of the depicted "Zwiesel", which comes from a unity, through kindness, goodness and loving-kindness, the thinking of separateness can be lifted and positive things can be brought about in this world. A tree slice with its annual rings represents a natural mandala, which is also the symbolic representation of the universe. Each work of art by the artist is unique.

« Art helps me to express myself when words are missing. It is my retreat and helps me to be with myself, to lose myself in my own world. » Sandra Brugger (*1986) lives and works in Pettneu am Arlberg and Nesselgarten near Fliess in Tyrol (Austria). In 2013, she graduated in sculpture from the College for Arts and Crafts and Design in Elbigenalp (Tyrol). In the same year, she set up her own business as a freelance artist. Brugger has taken part in 15 (inter)national sculpture symposia and her works have been exhibited nationally as well as in the USA, Germany and Italy. The subjects and themes in Brugger's works are wide-ranging and range from abstract forms to nature and people. In addition to sustainability, she also weaves socio-critical themes into her works. Brugger often models her objects from a wood paste she has developed herself, which she painstakingly produces from wood shavings and sawdust. Her unmistakable works are usually created from this basic material. Either layer by layer, alternating with acrylic paints or in combination with other materials. Working with wood paste is an intensive process, as each layer involves a long drying time. Her works are mostly made from wood paste, but also from wood, concrete and stone.
