TJORG DOUGLAS BEER – SIMSALABIM
2021-06-07Five monumental ceramic sculptures are located in the major room of the exhibition space. Each of them is placed on a base in different heights, of which the ones in steel are designed by the artist. Formally, they are reminiscent of rockets and bombs. While at the same time, they show human features. Stamped with various objects from the artist’s studio, the works function as a symbiosis of anthropomorphic representation and inanimate thing. Or as assemblages of a figure and a technical object. Tjorg Douglas Beer generates situations, scenarios and objects in his works. He translates influences from literature, music, politics and life in general in exaggerated form into new contexts.
