CHRISTOPH WEBER – FACING THE TECHNOSPHERE
2023-06-19In order to represent what eludes attempts to picture or imagine it, Christoph Weber employs materials from three different spheres that overlap in the world of our lived experience: concrete as the global building material that shapes the human-made technosphere; fossil rock as the material of the earth’s crust, the so-called lithosphere; and various mixtures of beeswax as a material representation of the biosphere. For his fourth solo exhibition, Weber has created a dense system of references to the horizons of meaning inscribed within these materials. On display are two groups of current works, the first of which symbolizes the direct confrontation of the three spheres, while the second attempts to feel its way toward the calculation of complex transformations.
