Fluxus – Die 1985 entstandene, multimediale Plastik aus ineinandergelegten Elementen folgt den Prinzipien des Faltens und Ineinanderfügens. Das Werk thematisiert Wandel und Durchlässigkeit: Flächen kippen zu Volumen, Innenräume werden zu Außenformen. Statt eines abgeschlossenen Körpers entsteht ein bewegliches Gefüge, das sich ständig neu ordnet. In Form einer "Wandschachtel" wird das Objekt zu zum Modell einer veränderlichen Wahrnehmung, ein Objekt zwischen Offenheit und Geschlossenheit, Konstruktion und Auflösung.

Fluxus – Untitled (wall box). 1985. Multimedia sculpture made of stacked, lid-like elements of riveted metal and papier-mâché. 82 x 60 x 6.5 cm (stacked inside each other). Engraved signature and date at the bottom. - With surface alterations inherent to the work, due to age and technique. Overall in very well preserved condition. - The multimedia sculpture, created in 1985 from stacked elements, follows the principles of folding and interlocking. The work addresses change and permeability: surfaces tilt into volumes, interiors become exterior forms. Instead of a closed body, a movable structure emerges that constantly rearranges itself. In the form of a 'wall box,' the object becomes a model of changing perception, an object between openness and closedness, construction and dissolution.
