Detailed description

Sculpture "Waiting II" (2023)

The sculpture titled "Waiting" shows a figure sitting on a stone-like object shaped like a snail. This design is meant to symbolize the long wait. The waiting woman sits in a pensive posture and seems to be patiently waiting for something or someone. The choice of the snail-shaped stone adds symbolism to the sculpture, as snails are known for their slow movement. The sculpture conveys an atmosphere of expectation and trust, while symbolizing the challenges and patience that come with waiting. It was modeled from coarse clay, fired and after firing finished with cold paint patina.

About Ilona Schmidt

Since 2007 I have devoted myself to free artistic studies, with a focus on painting and sculpture.
My works have been presented in numerous exhibitions at home and abroad and have been nominated and awarded several times. I have been a member of the Professional Association for Fine Artists since 2013. In my paintings and sculptures I try to capture the complexity of the human being. By using different techniques and materials, I create works that appeal to the emotions and thoughts of the viewer and stimulate reflection. My artistic work is characterized by a deep engagement with people and their environment. I explore the relationships between the individual and society, between body and mind, between past and present. My aim is to use my art to build a bridge between the viewer and the subject matter depicted. I want to arouse emotions, raise questions and provide food for thought. Because for me, art is not only an expression of my own thoughts and feelings, but also a medium for making contact with other people and inspiring them.
