T3-5 Stone Sculpture

May 5th, 2012

This one is an odd one. It is really hard to photograph, it has angles that are hard to understand, the colors are unusual, there are polished and natural surfaces to the stone, overall it somehow is a struggle for me. But then it is probably the most “true” sculpture I have built to date. There is a lot of pressure and tension in my life right now, things aren’t quite as easy. I feel like this sculpture describes that rather well.

Permanent Negative Stability – This Thursday

August 28th, 2011

permanent Negative Stability is opening this Thursday at Viva Design! I have been working on this concept and the challenges that come with creating these sculptures for a a few years and I am very excited to exhibit these pieces now. The concept of balance has been driving my thoughts for a while and the work presented in this show is a strong statement about that. I would love to see you at the opening…

“When a system in Negative Stability is displaced by a minor amount from its position in balance, it will generate a force that will move it farther from its original equilibrium.”

Captivated by the concept of balance, Jonas Jungblut moves from his photographic visualization of the concept to interpreting balance on a three-dimensional level.

Building on his series “Silent Messengers”, temporarily balanced stones, and a deep appreciation for the material stone, Jungblut created these sculptures to narrate his belief in tangible objects,  persistence and the necessity for balance.

We’d love to have you at the Artist’s reception of Jonas Jungblut’s work: permanent Negative Stability.

Wine and refreshments will be served.
