We are the World

Due to the spherical shape, various physical forces can work particularly well. The balls stick together and come loose again. They assemble into groups, atoms and chains that are constantly changing. The balls slowly rotate in large circles in the pool. The balls are reminiscent of people, groups, families, communities. The sculpture is a parable of us humans in this world.

Wegen der Kugelform können verschiedene physikalische Kräfte besonders gut zur Wirkung kommen. Die Kugeln haften aneinander und lösen sich wieder. Sie versammeln sich zu Gruppen, zu Atomen und Ketten, die sich stetig ändern. Langsam drehen sich die Kugeln in großen Kreisen im Becken. Die Kugeln erinnern an Menschen, an Gruppen, Familien, Communitys. Die Skulptur ist eine Parabel auf uns Menschen in dieser Welt.
