Kids again. Gehard Demetz

Incredible wood sculptures by Italian artist Gehard Demetz. The inspiration behind the art, translated from the artists words:

"They were children of 6-7 years of age.. Rudolf Steiner says that until an age of 6-7 years, that children can feel/hear in their unconscious the experiences of their ancestors. I have always been fascinated by this sort of thing, especially when thinking of my own childhood. The children in my sculptures realize this gift knowing that, when they become adults, they lose the ability to contact this unconscious, but to gain the advantages of being an adult."




Digital sculptures. Gwon Osang

It takes not less than 300 photo shots to create one piece of his art but the result is amazing. Digital technologies invade even such traditional areas as sculpture. Gwon Osang, a sculptor from Korea, makes his sculptures with the help of pixels. Even though those pixels are quiet big the contrast makes his works unforgettable and different.

Kids in blue. Guo Wei

In the works by Guo Wei, an artist from China, we can see a beautiful representation of interaction between teenagers. Guo Wei pays mush attention to postures and gestures of young people in his painting in order to show the viewer the game of the interrelationships. Humor and satire of natural children's emotions is brightly represented in the his works taking us to our own careless years of childhood.
