Sunday March 6, 2022 – I can’t stop making art

Today, for the first time in months, I managed to take half a day off. The sun was shining and I rode my bike and occasionally went for a walk. My thoughts didn’t revolve around art. I think I didn’t think anything at times, at least I can’t remember.

In the late afternoon, however, I became weak. I had to tinker something. I’ve started a new wire sculpture. And that’s the first time I’ve incorporated a finished part. In this case a ventilation unit from a car. I fiddled around with it for quite a long time because I wasn’t so sure about the overall shape. In the end, however, I realized that I had to approach the basic form of the ventilation object in order to create a certain unity. Then I covered the whole thing with Powertex.
Tomorrow I’ll paint it again with Powertex and strengthen it further and then I’ll think about the colors. I’m not really sure about the end result. As I said, I’m experimenting a bit. I try to create a connection between the prefab and the organic. I find this combination of mechanisms and organisms very interesting.
