Sustaining - Embracing - Preserving


„Trans-Form I“


„Trans-Form II“

In the Konrad collection has many worthwhile objects for restoration that have been damaged because of the nature of the wood or during transport. Instead of restoring them professionally, Vaago Weiland uses the damaged articles and fits them into his overall work of art . He provides the figurative art of the Asmat with an outside metal skeleton, which supports and stabilizes the sculptures. Furthermore he forms missing segments of the figures out of wax or other types of synthetics to demonstrate the preservation. This aim of Weiland shows a reality that is only partly reached.
