Neigungen / Inclinations

At first glance, Oliver Kruse’s “Neigungen” (Inclinations) looks like nine cubes pushed together and sunk into the ground. A closer look, however, reveals that they are distinct, actually quite complex geometrical shapes resting on the ground. Only the “inclinations” of the individual shapes make them interesting and idiosyncratic. Like his teacher Erwin Heerich, Oliver Kruse, whose work is closely connected with the artistic practice on Museum Insel Hombroich, is interested in the intersection between architecture and sculpture. The focus of Kruse’s multidisciplinary approach, which also incorporates digital technology, is on architecture, geometry, and space. He responds to existing sites, examines spatial conditions and their interrelationships. Digital reconstructions of existing forms allows them to be reassembled in previously unimagined ways, generating interwoven geometries that create a cosmos of interlinked systems.
