About the Item
A bronze figure with the mythical wings of Icarus. Nando Kallweit's work celebrates the modern human form whilst acknowledging that our individuality is shaped by our heritage. Heritage from our parents, our neighbourhood or from the distant past... in this case represented by the distinctive "Egyptian" head.
This striking bronze sculpture features a faceless human figure poised in a meditative stance, elevated on a robust pedestal. The figure's most captivating element is its outstretched wings, which command attention with their expansive reach and intricate detailing. The sculpture exudes a sense of strength and elegance, juxtaposing the heaviness of the base with the lightness suggested by the wings. The absence of facial features invites viewers to engage their imagination, transforming the figure into a universal symbol of aspiration and transcendence. The overall form harmoniously balances solid and ethereal qualities, underscoring themes of freedom and spiritual elevation. This artwork's bold design and execution make it a compelling focal point for contemplation and interpretation.

Nando Kallweit
Nando Kallweit is a German sculptor working in bronze and oak. As a young boy, he was inspired by the beauty and antiquity of a bust of Nefertiti housed in the Egyptian Museum of Berlin. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, his new-found freedoms allowed him to travel to Egypt and develop his belief in the basic strength and pride inherent in inhumanity. His sculptures seek to emphasize this through elongated forms and upright postures. He reduces the figures to simple gestures and movements creating sculptures with a wonderful interplay between the archaic and the modern; between art and design. Nando’s work has been exhibited across Europe and is held in many private collections. He has produced a number of large scale permanent installation pieces for German municipalities and museums.
