4 December 2023 Austrian artist Tillmann Kaiser's Christmas tree sculpture was presented to the public today at the Heidi Horten Collection. The artwork 'Weihnachtsbaum' is composed of rhythmic folds that interweave like an 'above' and 'below' such as introduced today on Instagram - as if to show the interconnectedness of heaven and earth, or space and earth. In the middle of the folds, which express a dynamic like wings that could start moving at any moment, is a mirrored glass body, while a wire spiral hangs from the top and protrudes into the form. The press release does not provide a more detailed interpretation of the artwork. It's up to the viewers to get inspired by the sculpture for own thoughts about Christmas. Some may interpret the mirrors as a symbol of the universe as a reflection of God, the spiral as an umbilical cord indicating that all life on earth originated from the debris of outer space, or associate the cord with the birth of Jesus Christ celebrated at Christmas. |
