recycled rainbow lifecasting no. 1

The trained sculptor Sandra Brugger models her objects layer by layer from a self-developed wood pulp, which she elaborately produces from wood chips and sawdust, alternating with artists' acrylic paints. An intensive process, since each layer is associated with a long drying time.

Over a long period of time, this technique was developed and at the same time a way was found to create something new and alive again from something old, a waste product. The self-produced wood pulp is applied layer by layer alternating with artist acrylic paints in a rainbow color gradient, among other things to make the individual layers visible on the back. The respective layers symbolize at the same time also the individual stages in the life of a person and stand symbolically also for the fragility, vulnerability, but at the same time for its strengths. The individual lines on the back also stand for the annual rings, the lifelines, as in a tree.
