Nest
36
Elstein Ceramic Dark Infrared-Emitters, supported
and sponsored by: 36 white elements made of ceramics are hanging down the ceiling. But they do not emit any light. Nothing can be seen. One has to use the other senses apart from eyes to experience this work. When passing underneath the warmth of the radiation can be noticed. All alone by itself this heat sculpture does not work, as infrared radiation only warms up objects (absorbing the radiation), the air in the room is not affected and is not getting warmer. |

"My
contribution with the title Nest I had already in my mind for a long time
however it took its final shape only in the course of the preparation
for this exhibition. Nest is operating by and with infrared radiation.
We cannot see infrared radiation. It is nothing but radiation. White elements
made of ceramics are hanging down the ceiling. As they do not radiate
any light initially we do not know what it represents Interview,

Nest "Profiler"
Mit
freundlicher Unterstützung von: Mitten im Raum hängen 36 weisse glühbirnenartige Keramik-Elemente von der Decke. Sie strahlen jedoch kein Licht aus. Es ist nichts zu sehen. Man muß andere Sinne bemühen um diese Arbeit erfahren zu können. Stellt man sich direkt unter die abgehängten Objekte, kann man Wärme spüren, die Gesicht und andere unbedeckte Körperpartien erhitzt. |
