Here are two videos from the sculpture symposium in Ottobrunn.
As you can see, I create my delicate, fragile sculptures using tools that look quite dangerous.
Not only do they look dangerous, the work does in fact involve some risks.
Especially at the symposium, where I only had a week to do a job that would normally take much longer, I obviously couldn't afford to make any mistakes.
It requires the utmost concentration, especially when the work takes longer and working with the angle grinder is pretty exhausting in the long run.

I have already set up my sculpture vertically in this video.
As soon as the stone is thin enough, I see the first light shining through and know where I still have to remove and where I must definitely not cut any more.
As long as the sculpture is lying horizontally, this cannot be seen.
However, working on the vertical surface is much more strenuous than with the stone lying horizontally.
