In this work, the artist combined three granite stone plates (“Lundhs Emerald Pearl” & “Bianco Romano”) with epoxy resin adhesive to form one unit. The circular hole was subsequently worked out with different tools. |
The steel sculpture consists of many individual wire pins, which were connected to one another by targeted welding points and thus unite into an abstracted, human form. This was drilled into the stone and glued. |
Thematically, the sculpture “time hole III” deals with numerous myths and legends that are about the caves of the Alps. It is reported that in some mountains there are so-called time holes in which time passes faster or more slowly than elsewhere. In addition, contacts to time travelers from a mirror world are reported. |
The surface of the stone is polished on the front and ground on the sides. The steel sculpture was sealed with matt clear lacquer to avoid oxidizing the steel. |

About the artist
Manfred Hellweger
Österreich
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.
