This exclusive sculpture combines cutting-edge technology with traditional craftsmanship. The sculpture’s core is a high-precision form made of PLA, a sustainable, bio-based plastic. Through an intricate, multi-day process, the piece is electroplated with a layer of genuine copper. Its distinctive, vibrant depth is achieved through a subsequent chemical patination process: the shades of verdigris and oxidation result from actual chemical reactions, making this sculpture a truly unique, one-of-a-kind piece. The symbiosis of digital design and classic electroforming gives the work an extraordinary tactile quality and visual dynamism as it rests on its base. Finished with high-quality acrylic accents. The image shows a portrait-format abstract sculpture titled "Theseus" by Andreas Loeschner-Gornau, photographed in a studio against a seamless light-gray to white background. The artwork stands on a slightly reflective, light-gray surface. The sculpture is a complex, intertwined form that extends vertically upwards. It consists of several thick, organically shaped strands and loops that wind around and connect with one another, creating a sense of dynamic, fluid movement. The structure features several voids and openings—most notably a striking, irregular opening in the upper-middle section—which reinforce the impression of a labyrinth or a complex knot. The overall form is wider at the base and tapers slightly towards the top, with contours defined by gentle bulges and curves. The sculpture’s coloring is distinctive: a muted, pale turquoise or mint green serves as the base color, over which a metallic, shimmering gold tone has been applied irregularly and in varying layers. The gold paint is concentrated primarily on the raised areas, edges, and outer surfaces of the winding strands, while the turquoise-green is more visible in the recesses and on the inner surfaces. This application creates a marbled or weathered effect. In many places, a light—almost white or cream-colored—underlayer shows through, lending the artwork added textural depth and a rustic charm. The gold tone catches the light, creating a subtle sheen. The sculpture’s surface is distinctly textured and rough. It has a granular, almost sandy or brushed quality, featuring numerous small irregularities, bubbles, and slight craters that hint at a handcrafted creation process. The application of paint is uneven, lending the work a tactile quality and an organic, imperfect character. The lighting is bright and diffuse—likely coming from the front and slightly to the side—creating soft shadows that clearly define the sculpture's three-dimensional form and the depth of its interlocking elements. The sculpture is centrally positioned and occupies a large portion of the vertical picture plane, underscoring its presence and significance.
