Peace flight<\/summary>\n

40 white paper doves are flying around in the Church Peter & Paul in Allschwil
Doves stand for peace, hope, life, renewal – a peace flight.
For a moment I would have liked this peace flight to fly towards Ukraine or Gaza, but no, doves are usually flying in all directions, that\u2019s how they are and it\u2019s good like it is.
Why 40 doves?
40 is a symbolic number, which is strikingly common in the Bible.
40 as a sign of creation in its entirety and completeness, 40 as a sign of a phase of change that enables a new beginning. In this sense, for me, this number is associated with openness, presence and hope.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

the spring<\/summary>\n

Messing, 50 x 70 cm, glas base

In this form one can breathe and relax. The richness and depth of its bluish patina are contrasting with the simplicity of this shape which seems to be held in an invisible hand. A light radial structure gives the “spring” a feel of eternity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

wild geese flying<\/summary>\n

copper, nylon thread, plexiglas
2m x 1m x 80 cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wild geese have a high social organization, 
which fascinates me:
Flying in a group over a long distance, the strongest among them take turn at the head 
of the flight, where the resistance of the air is 
the strongest.
Also they take the weakest and jungest ones 
in the middle of their flight.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The color and natural stratification of the stone give a floating aspect to this sculpture. Although almost flat and square, the shape remains organic and seems to shoot forward like the mass of a flying fish.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":319,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"wp-custom-template-page-english","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-993","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/993","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=993"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/993\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1722,"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/993\/revisions\/1722"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/319"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/art-lacau.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=993"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
