JOSÉ VAN WEERT
"FRAGILE BEAUTY"
José van Weerts inspiration:
"Denne elefant minder os om, at al natur er indbyrdes
forbundet, og at den fortsatte eksistens af dyr, som fx
bier, sommerfugle og vilde svaner, også er afhængig af,
at mennesket er i stand til at skabe plads til elefanterne.
Hvis vi ikke kan redde dette dyr, kan vi nok heller
ikke redde alle de andre. Jeg har benyttet glas som
materiale til min elefant."
The inspiration of José van Weert:
"This happy elephant reminds us that all nature is interconnected
and the further existence of our animals like
bees, butterflies and wild swans is also depending on
humanity being able to make space for the elephants.
If we cannot save the one we might also lose the other.
I have used glass as material for my elephant."

JOSÉ VAN WEERT
"LITTLE SISTER" - (H: 75 CM.)
José van Weerts inspiration:
"Lillesøster træder ind i sin egen hud og ud af en verden
domineret af menneskeheden. Mange af mosaik
stenene er blevet malet af børn for at symbolisere
forbindelsen mellem fremtiden for vores børn og fremtiden
for elefanter. Materiale: Håndmalet og 'kiln-fired'
glas".
The inspiration of José van Weert:
“Little Sister steps into her own skin out of a world
dominated by humanity. Many glass ‘tiles’ were painted
by children to symbolise the connection between the
future of our children and that of the elephants. Materials;
glass; handpainted and kiln-fired”.
