Material: 3 styrofoam-blocks, hard coating (weatherproof), varnished, 100 x 100 x 50 cm,
with hole ∅ 30 cm, weight approximately 5 kg each,1 slim tree trunk, approximately 6 m high (above ground), ∅ < 30 cm

Describtion
A bent or curved tree trunk, buried into the ground, stands as a solitaire. It carries three signal coloured styrofoam-blocks which are installed on top of each other. Short branches prevent the blocks from slipping down. At least two of the
branches wil be added to the tree trunk artificially, so that the blocks can be put into position from top one by one.
The red cubes contrast the environment strongly. The blocksʻ volumes, weight and indecipherable material raise questions. The curved tree trunk evokes the impression of a heavy weight which has to be carried. Formally the cubes represent a condition of „civilisation“ encountering nature and environment. The tree-trunk carrying the blocks
mediates between the contrasting conditions. - On the other hand, the work can also be
regarded as a growing “strange flower with red blossom-leaves“.

CUBE DICER was not realized yet (shown images are fotomontage). - The work is related to a sculpture realized in 2015 in German citty of Trier („Trio Trier“ -see website). Technical conditions are similar. Placement and fixation of blocks and tree trunk is based on practical experience.
blocks, tree trunk needs no extra footing). The work is environmentally friendly.
