Yard festival at the Wintringer farm with work presentation "In the Balance".

Program flyer

Under the title "In the Balance", Hermann Bigelmayr once again uses nature as a source of inspiration to conclude his work. The scene is a late summer wheat field in the early morning. On the silken thread of a spider, a broken leaf of a wheat stalk that has grown too high floats and moves seemingly weightless in the wind...

Since fall 2013, a quotation of that extremely filigree wheat leaf can be observed at the cultural site Wintringer Chapel. The leaf floats "on a silken thread" under the stalk of wheat already created by Hermann Bigelmayer in 2011. The artist had already been working on this with care in his Munich studio since 2012. Bigelmayr peeled thereby proverbially an increasing feeling of distress from a mighty maple trunk: Despite a meanwhile widespread knowledge about possible solutions, the threats to our planet caused by us humans ourselves, one does oneself with acting heavily. It remains predominantly with symptom treatments and political lip service.
