In my chosen approach to respecting the physical properties of each block of marble I select I do not force upon it any preoccupied intentions, but allow a subtle communication with the material to develop. So at times intentionally unworked marble will become part of the message I want to convey. In this sculpture, a human figure emerges from the stone, which at the same time represents the burden each human being carries. I am a fundamentally positive person and therefore the burden may feel heavy, but can undoubtedly be moved, step by step. This sculpture weighs ca. 1 800 kg. It comes with a pedestal made of the same material with dimensions H = 86 cm, L = 107 cm and D = 55 cm, but on request a custom-made pedestal is available.

Austria
Born in Salzburg/Austria in 1939 into a famliy of artists I trained as a sculptor and worked as a restorer for several years before starting to experiment and create my own sculptures using wood, stone and bronze. Very early in my career I fell in love with the human form while also increasingly using my art to voice my concern about the immense human impact on our planet. My favourite materials are the famous marbles found around Salzburg (Adnet and Untersberg marbles). Decades ago I discovered local quarries as spectacular backdrops to my outdoor workshops. As a principle, when working with stone, I never use the aid of power tools. All my sculptures, including monumental ones, are exclusively carved by hand, using hammer and chisels only. In preparation for my sculptures I do intensive research, creating series of drawings and model sculptures using both clay and artist quality plasticine.
