MENHIR
I was inspired by the fascinating archaeological history of your place. I try to find connection between different times and artifacts. I call my project Menhir memory because I want to give form to the memories of the place and provoke people to come back to them deeper part of consciousness. When this is happen then people have awareness for the nature and they stay more near to human nature too. I prefer to work with natural materials and for Menhir memory I will use wood and natural stones. The wood is 8 meters high and it is monolith form build up from 5 parts- every part is a symbol of fifth base elements- water, earth, fire, air and eater. Every part has a aperture in which stay a little stone. First part is in the earth-the mother, last is open to the sky. It is connection between earth and the sky/element air/ and also it is prayer. The ivy goes from the earth and day after day, year after year will capture the wood. The nature is stronger of us… Seven small stones stay in well arranged position in earth near to the wood. They are symbol of our life and also seven is sacral part of human existence. The wood sculpture looks like same time the cult object. I another point of view it is column of the people and every body is base for next generation. Last one looks and strives for the sky.
