About the work
Ingrid Hartlieb describes her works as »reflections on the world that have become form, as ciphers of human existence«. She points out that grasping the world can only succeed in its fragmentary nature. Hartlieb develops the sculptures from drawings and sketches. For the realization she uses local wood species, which are glued together in different layers. The head as a bust is one of the most important issues in sculpture. It can also be understood here as an allegory of the human psyche.
