Ralf Weber

Ralf Weber (1972) is a sculptor based in Germany. Fascinated by contrasts, contradictions and tension, Weber is inspired by nature and its materials, usually black granite and white marble. In his work he searches for the infinite line that envelops a volume like a movement in space.

‘My works are sculptural sketches of space. The sculpture has an inner core that is connected to the infinite line.
This inner element is the soul of the block, which escapes my strict form concept. The movements of the soul of the stone have a finer dynamic and an explicitly contrasting surface structure, the boundaries of which are determined only by the infinite line.

What I really want to show is that the whole thing is an impossible exercise.
The choice of materials is deliberately wrong. These works are about a real uselessness. I cut and chisel for as long as necessary before the previous structures of the material, and thus the system, as it were, collapse.’

1992 – 1995 stone carving training in the traditional way.
Working as an artist – sculptor, since 1998.
