Nuda Veritas ~ Mensch und Metall
"As the wind affects a bird, people effect each other.
Whether we do as much as we can, or very little, we affect each other.
We should all think about our effect."
In 2013 Dan was invited to attend a metal symposium in Ohrdruf, Germany. He would be one of five artists representing their home country. The theme was" Nuda Veritas ~ Mensch und Metall", or "Naked Truth ~ Man and Metal".
The location for the symposium was Tobias Hammer, is a 500-year-old water driven hammer mill on the Ohr River.
Each artist designed and built a sculpture using blacksmith skills as well as modern metal techniques.
The five artists each built their individual sculpture using blacksmith techniques as well as modern metal tools, at times combing their skills to add support when needed. After five days there were six new sculptures.
