In this installation the association of two apparently conflicting conditions creates an almost paradoxical situation. The artificial element represented by oil barrels is compared to a natural element symbolized by the deer. The black-gray color of the barrels, which spreads over the face of the animal, suggests an “aggression” of the artificial on the natural: the environmental pollution caused by mankind. At a second sight, one sees the vivid and immaculate landscape, scaled down in size on the back of the deer. It acts as a warning for the preservation of the most valuable thing we have: our environment.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Willy Verginer Lindenwood acryl color, iron, wood sculpture 165x118x60cm https://www.instagram.com/p/B2SMIAOoBAm/?igshid=1royg92gr3tel

"The essence of Change is Life." Ancient Egyptian wisdom teaches us that when the thought of change seems scary, remember that the gift you receive from it is Life. || #ClearTheNoise #WalkInPower (at Lindenwood Nature Preserve)

Willy Verginer is an Italian sculptor, living and working in Val Gardena. Verginer creates hyperrealist wood sculptures, drawing inspiration from the arresting nature surrounding him and the fragility of our environment. The work engages with ecological and environmental issues we are faced with in our contemporary world. His work often explores the ambiguous relations between Man and Nature, and more importantly our responsibility as humans to respect, protect and preserve the natural world. Verginer has been enticing collectors around the globe for decades with his striking life-sized sculptures; his pieces are often characterized by a systematic use of acrylic paint that is applied in opaque linear bands. Subsequently, Verginer’s sculptures oscillate between realism and surrealism, forcing the viewer to contemplate the underlying message while also insinuating a sense of playfulness and irony.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Willy Verginer The Boy and the See Lindenwood and acrylic 76" x 27" x 20" (at Galerie LeRoyer) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2RlWv1IXhn/?igshid=aqkdugcd2mb7
