This small sculpture was produced using 3D printing from a beige, matt-sheened filament and is presented on an untreated wooden plinth. The figure is entirely covered in sharply folded, textile-like structures that evoke a sense of frozen movement. The surface shifts between sculptural materiality and digital relief, making the body appear as though concealed beneath a protective shell.
Produced as a multiple in two different colours, each in a limited edition of 25 pieces, the work is based on a handmade model made of fabric, wood and glue. Through digitalisation, the analogue gesture is transformed into a reproducible object, exploring the relationship between body, shell and transformation of form.

We look around and see people walking past us, standing still, leaning against architectural objects, structures and buildings. These people are strangers to us; they are strangers and will always remain so. We do not speak to them, and they appear aloof and anonymous. No longer recognisable as individuals and having lost their humanity, they become intangible beings, part of an urban landscape. These biological, natural forms gradually merge with their surroundings, with objects and the surrounding architecture. Thus, distorted fragments of humanoid life forms from an urban world are reflected in Ackermann’s works. A dialogue emerges here between these figures and their inner relationship with the viewer.
