Frank Teufel draws seemingly effortless lines in with the stone that challenge the limits of statics and give the stone an unexpected lightness. These lines weave a diverse network, interacting with each other or with themselves. Sometimes they move concavely, then convexly again, sometimes they run parallel or set off from each other, only to gently come together again later. The traces of processing remain on the surface of the stone so that the original materiality and crystal structure can be experienced – nothing is concealed or smoothed. These traces resemble impressions and experiences that shape each sculpture and give each life its uniqueness.
