"You never will be the person you can be if pressure, tension and discipline are taken out of your life."
The Observer
Doris Bühler sculpts the image of the observer contemplating the world from a different viewpoint.
“From an inquisitive angle, tense and dumb,”
says the artist.
“Are we capable of understanding and sensing the array and possibilities of our existence?”
Each moment is unique, and so are we, for every passing moment influences our concepts and our viewpoints. The burden of history influences our outlook and accordingly, we are unable to regard anything without subconsciously relating to the past. Our concepts are dictated by our human history and whatever we have experienced in the past. In this work I am trying to challenge rigid thought patterns.”
The "Observer" is introduced by the artist as a shining metallic head emerging from the earth. The head, generated by advanced technology, consists of over 300 aluminum plates welded together.
