The artist has firmly connected the individual, different lengths from local larches by means of an elaborate and time-intensive glue technique. The cavities between the strips provide insights into the interior, in some cases you can even see completely. In addition, a special dynamic is generated by the interplay of different lengths and distances of the strips, which seems to be constantly moving. | “human flow” was derived from the aphorism of the Greek natural philosophy Heraklit of Ephesos: “Pantha rhei” - Everything flows. Just as the water in the brook is always in motion, so all things, beings and phenomena in the world are always in change. Everything changes and develops, nothing remains as it is. | “Hyperion” comes from Greek mythology and is the name of one of the 82 previously known moons of Saturn. | All sculptures by Manfred Hellweger are unique.
