Stephanie Wehowski's Patio Project #13, Stupa, exists beyond the reach of concrete definitions, instilling in the viewer a sense of awe and wonder. This large scale sculpture and installation inhabits a space in between fantasy and reality.
The giant mushroom tower teeters on the brink of the surreal. Constructed from organic materials it is a form at once familiar, situated opposite Hackney Downs park where it could have grown naturally, and entirely alien.
Wehowski's sculptures and installations have occupied parks and abandoned buildings, and draw on phenomenal philosophy. She was born in Germany and now lives and works in London.
This is the last Patio Project in the series, but watch this space for news of the Patio Projects publication, to be launched in 2013 together with a special presentation of the accompanying multiple/ltd edition works we commissioned from each of the 13 artists in this programme.
