BODY, CONTAINED
APRIL 17 – MAY 8, 2021
It is with great joy that Galleri Sebastian Schildt presents metal artist Tobias Birgersson and bookbinder extraordinaire Wolfgang Bremer in the joint exhibition Body, Contained. The exhibition features sculptures based on gourds: the voluptuous African fruit which is likely to be one of our earliest kinds of vessels. By the application of various colour pigments, platinum, palladium and 24k goldleaf – the gourds assume new sculptural forms.
Body, Contained also presents photographer Christian Habetzeder, who has captured the sculptures in a series of photographs where the naked human body accentuates the sinuous, natural and timeless quality of the gourds.
