Detailed description

Sculpture "Small oak" (2022)

A broken branch of an oak tree is probably not given special attention by many. But for children and artists, it can be the beginning of a creative journey. In the case of the artist, this branch was the basis of a new sculpture that follows the original shape of the piece of nature, but virtually refines it and transforms it into an organic and complex shaped sculpture. The artist is not interested in representing anything. The wood itself as a natural material and an aesthetic design with a play of edges and surfaces are content enough. The sculpture is thus a refined piece of nature and invites visual and tactile pleasure. Of course, associations are allowed, but this is a matter of viewing. The wood is waxed and the sculpture is mounted on a dark stone plate.

About Michael Rofka

Basically, I work in various media, with sculpture or sculpture takes a central role.
Increasingly important, however, are also land art projects on an international level. But I also paint and am musically active. Interdisciplinarity is important to me. Figurative elements are found only exceptionally and if these are rather plant forms. I have always been interested in natural science and nature forms a thematic center. For my sculptures I like to look for stones and wood in nature. However, I use steel or copper and also like to combine materials. The shaping of the sculptures follows on the one hand formal, geometric considerations, on the other hand it is found in a creative artistic work process. I am particularly interested in flow forms.
