Flad, Wolfgang Dark Side of the Moon. 2021. mixed media. 50 x 39.5 cm. Signed, dated and titled verso and with artist's stamp Flad Wolfgang. Framed in object frame and under coloured mirrored glass. - Fascinating effect of the three-dimensional surface, iridescent in the reflecting light. Wolfgang Flad often uses wood, plaster and synthetic materials in his works. These are often reminiscent of natural forms such as roots, branches or coral structures and appear both modern and archaic at the same time. The Dark Side of the Moon series of works shows his characteristic preoccupation with form, material and the combination of nature and abstraction. Inspired by the moon and its symbolic meaning as the hidden or unknown, the works in the series allude to the mysterious and unexplored side of the moon. The sculptural complexity of these works creates an impressive tension and refers to the interplay of light and darkness, the known and the unknown - themes that are closely linked to the moon as a source of inspiration.
