Project 3. Artist - Dan Wollmering


Dan Wollmering
Dan Wollmering has worked across mixed media practice and installation - exploring unorthodox materials such as bread, recycled plastic and in recent times, to more conventional mediums: synthetic & natural wood products, silicon bronze, steel and stone. His particular research interests include 3-D abstraction and the 'affected' through the autonomy of sensation and transformation. Investigating new ways to find meaning in historical and contemporary abstract sculptural forms, he is engaged in hypothetical projections of beauty and the 'familiar' through ongoing studio research. Paralleling these pursuits, he has continually maintained a strong engagement with public art through documentation and commissioned public sculpture projects.
