Transfiguration

DZNE Sculpture
Bonn, Germany 2017
Medium : Stainless steel
Dimensions :  2.3 x 6 metres

The sculpture installation represent a physical and emotional path to well-being. The front entrance sculpture is a visual metaphor for the way in which information is absorbed through the sensory receptors; through sight, sound and touch.

Neurotransmitters, represented by the steel discs follow a path through the building and emerge outside to physically reform and morph into a solid tangible structure; a visual metaphor for growth, healing and re-generation.

As the shape re-constructs it changes into a solid curved mirror, reflecting the world around us. This reflection captured in the curved mirrored section represents an awakening and enlightenment, the possibility to see the world clearly again. The sculpture represents this personal and scientific journey undertaken in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
