the 4 elements Sculpture - Limited Edition of 50

Artistic career As a teenager I was interested in body shapes, I drew many nudes with charcoal, about 2 meters high, and various shapes modeled with different materials. In my first job I learned how to use modeling wax and started making small sculptures out of wax. In 2003 I began my career as a freelance artist in the “Sinworks” studio. After moving to Varel, I renamed the studio “Dangast-Bronze”. My influences In the beginning my work was dark and morbid and based on the Gothic world, which I felt connected to for almost two decades. I deal with physical decay and the tension between seduction and damnation. Little by little, a field of tension emerged between the beauty and clarity of Pre-Raffelite painting on the one hand and an aesthetic of decay from the Gothic world on the one hand. I have always been interested in mythical and spiritual figures. The longing for power over the physical is visible in my work. I studied medieval art and worked on new, contemporary variations of the Memento Mori.
