Original artwork description:

The artwork human flow AMALTHEA embodies the fluid nature of human existence and the balance between form and dissolution. The sculpture depicts an abstract feminine figure, whose body is composed of vertically arranged wooden slats of varying lengths. While the upper part forms a closed, harmonious structure, the lower section appears to dissolve—giving the impression of movement or merging with its surroundings.
The different lengths of the wooden slats create a rhythmic dynamic, lending the sculpture a sense of weightless motion. The natural grain of the wood enhances its organic character, evoking the constant transformation inherent in all life.

human flow AMALTHEA symbolizes the duality of stability and change. The solid upper form represents identity and inner strength, while the dissolving base reflects transformation and the continuous flow of life. The sculpture invites us to let go of rigidity, embrace change, and move with the rhythm of existence.
With its minimalist yet profound aesthetic, human flow AMALTHEA serves as a striking reflection on human existence—a dance between form and dissolution, between grounding and release.

Materials used:

lime wood, larch wood, steel
