Absence Of Emptiness, A Sculpture By Juergen Eckstein
|
|
A Plaque embedded in the grass near to the statue credited, "Absence Of Emptiness" by Juergen Eckstein,
Redwood --2012, Inspired by Gottfried Benn's
|
|
The statue featured a tight crowd of people all gathered into a confined space. The location of the statue
was well chosen, overlooking Nye Beach in Newport, Oregon.
|
|
The statue was composed of not just people. Near the top on this face were two owls.
|
|
On the backside of this "Absence Of Emptiness" statue was a stairway.
|
|
On the beach facing side of the sculpture was this face of a man, a scarf around his neck, and peeking out from
behind a carved woman's hair.
|
|
Also on the beach side of the sculpture was a goat's head next to the stairs.
|
|
A man carved into the town facing side of the sculpture gazed forever with longing at the town he would
never reach.
|
|
A man hung upside down from the sculpture and next to his upside down face were dozens of tiny faces crowded
together.
|
|
A woman's face was the highest person carved into this sculpture. She was facing the sea, the beach, and
the next tsunami.
