Micha Zweifel

Micha Zweifel presents a new body of work, consisting of large plaster reliefs and figurative sculptures. Using the interstitial time between travels to make this exhibition, Zweifel addresses the situations of work for and in the current moment. The sculptures in the show reflect the passing of time in the work process as motif and spatial strategy. Time here is of an almost physical texture: major interruptions and boredom exist within each other, both past and anticipated. The plaster reliefs are worked in the negative by continuously reusing the same clay mould which is formed, colored and then cast in plaster. In this iterative process of approximation, recognition and abstraction, the motifs disintegrate into vivid textural surfaces.
