Metamorphosis

The human figure is formed by mental and physical activity. This insight, which I gained in countless studies of human occupation, was the birth of this work. While in his young years the human being is still completely held by the outside, the environment, with the growing occupation on a certain field or in a certain direction an impulse arises, which forms the human being from the inside and gives him in the age his face, his expression. The working process began with a poem by Rose Ausländer entitled Portrait of an Old Man

The work is a bronze sculpture with a base out of steel.
