Description

The intervention is an interplay of different levels: on one hand, a visual language abstracted by Garda Alexander from anatomical drawings; another level consists of cross-cultural symbols integrated into this “sign story,” and another consists of BioSignatures from BioGeometry. Visitors are invited to connect with the specially chosen place or to build a dialogue.

The place can be experienced differently when you pause, take your time, and enjoy the nature quietly. It is a stretch of about 200 meters and the artistic intervention includes 4 stones/rocks. It is important for the artist Garda Alexander to set an accent with the engravings for the perception of the stones and the special place – a appreciation of nature.

Through engagement with anatomy, the artist abstracts a geometric language. Insights into the works at:
