A powerful horse looks slightly sideways, its mane blown wildly by an imaginary gust of wind. The gaze is determined and gentle at the same time. The flowing wire structures perfectly capture the elegant build of the head, the tense neck muscles and the liveliness of the mane. If you look closely, you will discover how even the ears are just barely symmetrical. A sign of alertness and character.
The portrait is composed of many loose black threads, which give the work a playful character. Together, they create a vivid image full of texture and movement. The subject shows subtle densities and the background of handmade paper gives the work a warm, natural base.
This work is part of my 'wire portraits' series of human and animal portraits, including a foal in the same style and other endearing baby animals. To be found in my personal shop.
This series grew out of my love for materials with character and story. Handmade paper fascinates me. Every fibre, every irregularity is unique and depends on the origin of the paper. The thin black thread makes it fragile and in some places almost seems to merge into the paper itself. That combination, together with my passion for creating portraits of people and animals, ensures that I have worked on each artwork with great pleasure and dedication. Each portrait is carefully constructed using Artificial Intelligence, with an eye for detail and a deep sense of connection. A unique collaboration between human feeling and digital imagination.
