Sequoia, acrylic paint

Die Form ist von der Natur inspiriert, der Inhalt, die Samen, sind bereits auf fruchtbaren Boden gefallen und es wachsen neue Bäume mit neuen Früchten. Ähnlich wie unsere Ideen die wir mit anderen Teilen und die sich in anderen Köpfen weiter entwickeln und zu neuen Ideen weiterwachsen.
The form is inspired by nature. The contents, the seeds, have already fallen on fertile soil. New trees grow from old tree’s fruits. The ideas we share with others are reflected in their developing minds and grow into new ideas.
Christine Wenzhöfer ist 1967 in Köln geboren, dort in einer Künstlerfamilie aufgewachsen und arbeitet seit ihrer Ausbildung in der Landwirtschaft.
Im Jahr 2005 begann sie zu drechseln und lernte dabei viele Einheimische Hölzer kennen. Seit 2016 begeistert sich Christine für das Holz des Mammutbaums, aus dem ihre neusten Objekte entstehen.
Sie mag die breiten Jahresringe des Mammutbaums, die sie durch das Sandstrahlen herausarbeitet. In Kombination mit Ausfräsungen und manchmal bunten Farben entstehen ihre Objekte.
Christine liebt die Farben und Formen der Natur und lässt sich von ihr inspirieren, sie möchte sie nicht kopieren, sondern lieber neue Wesen erschaffen. Die Acrylfarben verdecken zwar die natürlichen Farben vom Holz, die Struktur und der natürliche Verlauf der Jahresringe bleiben jedoch durch das Sandstrahlen sichtbar und geben Ihren Objekten etwas Natürliches.
Christine Wenzhöfer was born in Cologne in 1967, grew up there in a family of artists and has worked in agriculture since her apprenticeship. In 2005 she started turning and got to know many local woods. Since 2016, Christine has been enthusiastic about the wood of the sequoia, from which her latest objects are made.
She likes the broad annual rings of the sequoia, which she brings out by sandblasting. Her objects are created in combination with cutouts and sometimes bright colors.
Christine loves the colors and shapes of nature and is inspired by them, she doesn't want to copy them but rather create new beings. Although the acrylic paints cover the natural colors of the wood, the structure and the natural course of the annual rings remain visible through the sandblasting and give your objects a natural look.
