Shootingstar [Sternschnuppe]

This luminous sculpture captures the impossible - a frozen trajectory of light, the eternal instant when heaven touches earth. Like its celestial namesake, the piece exists at the intersection of movement and stillness, offering a meditation on those rare moments when infinity collapses into the present.

The sculpture's form suggests both ascent and descent, a graceful arc that seems to pulse with captured velocity. Its surface treatment evokes the incandescent trail of a meteor - simultaneously burning and cooling, arriving and departing, forever suspended in its journey across the void.

Each viewing angle reveals a different relationship between observer and cosmos. The work transforms depending on light conditions, sometimes appearing to glow from within, other times reflecting its surroundings like a fragment of night sky brought to earth. It embodies the paradox of the shooting star: gone before we fully see it, yet burned into memory forever.

Ein Blick reicht um einen Moment zu erfassen
Dem Impuls der Klarheit zu folgen.
Unendlichkeit wird kurz zur Gegenwart
Und das ganze Universum ist wieder in dir.

Sternschnuppe serves as both artwork and talisman - a physical reminder that clarity arrives in flashes, that the entire universe can be glimpsed in a single moment of presence. The sculpture invites contemplation of our own inner cosmos, the infinite space we carry within finite form.

For collectors who seek art that bridges the terrestrial and celestial, offering daily communion with wonder and the profound recognition that we are, always, both observer and universe.
