human nails XI consists of many individual wire pins, which were connected to one another by targeted welding points and thus unite into an abstracted, human form. | Like in the “human flow” sculpture series, Manfred Hellweger also creates a whole range from many individual parts. Each nail stands for a thought, an emotion, or a feeling in a person's life. | A special eye-catcher is due to the use of an antique carriage as a base. The work of art thus works archaic and modern at the same time and brings a powerful, emotional presence into every room. | The steel sculpture was treated with several layers of matt acrylic lacquer to avoid oxidation. The antique carriage and the bottom plate made of Cortenstahl are natural. | Total weight: 30.7 kg All sculptures by Manfred Hellweger are unique.

The Austrian sculptor Manfred Hellweger (*1986) lives and works in Pettneu am Arlberg and Nesselgarten near Fließ in Tyrol. In 2004, Manfred completed his training as a sculptor at the technical school for arts and crafts and design in Elbigenalp (Tyrol). Shortly afterwards he became self-employed as a freelance artist and in 2013 completed additional training as a stone sculptor at the technical school for stone processing in Laas (South Tyrol). Hellweger has already taken part in over 30 international sculpture symposiums and numerous exhibitions at home and abroad. His works are already represented by collectors worldwide, e.g. Japan, USA, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Germany and Austria. Manfred Hellweger’s creative process and inspiration: In his works, the artist deals with questions of meaning and values ​​of existence, the world and people. His distinctive sculptures are primarily made from wood and metal. Cuboids, strips, boards or nails are connected together using different techniques to create a figurative or abstract shape that tapers downwards. Through this process, Manfred Hellweger’s sculptures appear to dissolve vertically and create a flowing dynamic. Here the artist refers to the constant change of our time. Everything changes and develops, nothing stays the same.
