Central to the "Dismantled and Rebuilt series" are paintings of natural debris: a tree stump, symbolizing longevity and endurance, and a leaf, representing ephemeral existence. The artist discovered these elements amidst Berlin's resilient “rubble mountains.” The composition features layered blind-contour drawings, a technique that captures the raw, unfiltered essence of these natural forms, merging them with the historical context of their surroundings. The artwork's structure is a dynamic interplay between two-dimensional and three-dimensional elements. Emerging from the frame is a wooden sculpture that juts out, representing the physical intrusion of nature into the remnants of human conflict. This sculpture reinforces the theme of nature’s persistence and its ability to reclaim and redefine spaces marked by history.
