Staschke, portrait

Dirk Staschke

I make sculptures based on paintings in what is traditionally considered a craft medium. In this translation, the sculptural representation of still life painting creates abstract forms. The results are beautifullly made objects that simultaneously expose the crude structures of their creation.
