About the Artist

Ester Christen

Switzerland

"I am inspired by trees and the way they relate to each other, often finding similarities with the human world and to interactions between people.

The process starts by choosing a piece of wood to work with and then let it decide which direction to go first. It often is an intuitive procedure where I slowly start to see the figure and am able to free it from the trunk by using hammer and chisel.

It is a long process and full of surprises. One never knows what is hidden inside the log.

Wood can be challenging and hard but at the same time inspiring and soft.
I have chosen to work with wood because it is alive and forces one to adapt and evolve continuously."
