About The Artwork

Monument to victims of homosexual persecution - Vienna, Karlsplatz The rainbow colors of the monument are created by daylight alone, without electricity. The focus here is on the colors projected by daylight, which always appear in a new light depending on the time of day and the weather. Depending on the nature of the background, the colors appear almost as clear as with colored glass windows, since the light is refracted. The brighter the ambient light, the more delicate the colors appear. The darker it gets, the brighter they shine. Direct light depicts the object as a colored shadow, indirect light allows the colors to run smoothly. Concept: The consideration before finding the form was whether a classic monument, for example with a base and a top part cast in bronze, would still trigger the desired reactions in today's viewers or whether it would not be better to go in a different, more contemporary direction. I tried the latter with this design. Experience has shown that you are more concerned with something if it is not obvious at first glance and you have to conquer it of your own accord (almost like in love). What only becomes apparent at second and third glance stays with you longer. To do this, however, the viewer's attention must first be demanded. In this case with the unusual shape, the bold construction and the bright colors. Curious, our passer-by will find the inscription on the back, the subject of which he will try to connect with the individual parts and overall picture of the monument when he looks again.
