Purple man, installation "Don`t be a shallow" Sculpture

Olesia Dvorak-Galik Purple man, installation "Don`t be a shallow", 2018 Hand sculpting, chamotte, glazing, plywood 16.9 × 4.7 in 43 × 12 cm This is a unique work. I started working on the installation "Don't be flat" in the second half of 2016. I am always interested in the role of man in society, nature, politics, human relationships, love, everything related to personal development. With this work I wanted to touch upon the problem of people who look at this world flat, very evenly and without color. A medal has two sides and they can differ from each other in volume, color and content. Wooden planes represent people, and ceramic large and small elements symbolize the enrichment and accumulation of this volume, man transforms the plane, ie his inner and outer world. I used different materials to create the work: ceramics, metal, plywood.
