Description

This work of art by Heinz Möseneder presents itself as a finely crafted copper work that develops a clear and expressive visual language through engravings and subtle structuring. At the centre is a cross that is reduced to its essence and unfolds a special effect through the materiality of the copper.

The treatment of the copper plate emphasises the natural surface of the metal and creates different shades and reflections through the incidence of light, giving the work a lively appearance. The lines and minimalist design language convey calm and clarity, while the material has a durable and timeless appeal.

This work blends equally well into modern and classic living spaces and creates a quiet but present focal point. It encourages an exploration of symbolism and material and invites you to engage with the simplicity and depth of its design.
