Steel sculptor and blues harper
In between I mad some more of my “sketches” as I call cute little wooden sculptures. As always (this is the rule of the game), the small wooden steles are made from one single piece without glue or dowels. I also gave them all a white glaze so that the wood structure is less prominent. More photos are availbale on the sculptures page.
The Corona lockdown periods have been quite productive. I found time and energy to tackle “complicated things” and experiment with new forms. Among others, a sculpture was completed that required more than 3,000 welding spots. Here are a few photos of recent work:
It’s done. The new sculpture has been welded. More than 6,000 welding spots were needed to assemble the laser-cut parts. The sculpture will be on display in 2021 (if Corona allows, hopefully).
I recently began working on a new steel sculpture. In the last two years I created a series of “basket-like” sculptures and this one feels like a bringing this idea to a maximum level. Technically and mentally this is going to be challenging work – several thousand welding spots are waiting. I will expand the picture gallery step by step.
I am proud to see my public sclpture installed at the Krüger-Park in Engingen. It is a commission work for the city of Eningen unter Achalm (Germany). The sculpture is made of a combination of stainless steel and corten steel. Preparation and construction took about 2 years. Big thanks to all helpers and supporters!
Finally, the photo gallery with a lot of my sculptures can also be found on the English language version of my website. https://www.jochenwarth.de/en/sculptures/
I’m now member of sculpture-network.org, a European networking organization for three-dimensional art. I’m looking forward to new connections with other artists. My profile page is here: https://sculpture-network.org/de/view/profile/25413/Jochen-Warth
