14 Apr Projekt i sin vorden for 2020
Flensborg, Duborg slot.
Flensborg, Duborg slot.
I am planning a new firingsculpture ’Diamond’ in the riverbed of Isar 15 km north of Munich. The river is here only 150 km from the mountains and the work will be exposed to the yearly high waters in the spring.
A firingsculpture is planned for a site in North Jylland on the brink of the North Sea where the sea constantly is eroding the coast and taking land and houses. Last year the last pieces of a church fell into the sea.
In a week I will meet with the group with which I will make the firing sculpture that I have been preparing for the last 4 months. I decided to use a local clay to strengthen the archeological angle of the project. That has meant a lot of testing. We will build right at the lake, only 100 m from where the archaeologists are still digging. Just yesterday when I passed there, they had made exceptional finds: Two sculls with marks from swords.
