Stones

Tears of Eternity
with their own destinies.
Memories and
Messages.

They cannot die.
But live.
Not talk but speak.

We cannot look inside.
But destroy them.
Nor take away their weight.
But balance them.

Stones and Water.
The Eternal Game of Nature.

An Act of Art.


KARL CHILCOTT

Art may be a game, but it is a serious game.
- Caspar David Friedrich

Chilcott works with place-related art in nature, sculpture and installation in the north, countries and landscapes around the North Atlantic. In the process he uses natural powers and materials like wood, stones, flowers, wool, skylines, tide, bones, snow, ice, fire and traces of humans. Creating and sculpting he feels physical and philosophical. He wants his artworks to become points of references to the nature we have, but are loosing within and without us. 

In this sense art shall contribute to a reconciliation between mankind and nature.
- Theodor Adorno
