christina wendt is a sculptress, or "human designer. her artistic goal is characterized by an intense interest in people, through life experience in a variety of forms through the dedicated intervention in social relations. Her human figures lack any civilizational attributes and yet are sophisticated and charismatic personalities of contemporary witnesses. As three-dimensional snapshots, as monumentalised character studies, they point us in the everyday lovable arrogance on the weaknesses and humanity in the here and now. They communicate with each other and their environment. As a viewer wants to / in we see the mirror that we are held up and inspire us to self-questioning.
