Unyielding Repetition (AT) 24/25
A triangle of poetic entanglements
figures fade, meanings shift,
Echoes of fame now hollow and drift.
Lost in the shadows where memories swim,
Lingering there as the lights grow dim.
The cycle unwinds, an intricate tapestry of repetition,
Echoes of our endeavors softly woven in ambition.
Humanity wanders, entangled in time's intricate weave,
Yearning for change, yet ensnared in what we perceive.
The installation work is dedicated to the meanings of fragmented stone sculptures that have been marked by erosion and weathering over centuries. In "Unyielding Repetition: A Triangle of Poetic Entanglements," nature develops its own agency and brings forth new iconographic representations. This provides clues to a critical reflection on human dominance over nature concerning ecological responsibility.
