Objects made out of resin
"Once a man found in a state of dreaming – in a daydream it was – that he got pregnant from nothingness"Â
"This quotation from Meister Eckhart, the mystic, relates to one of Vera Staubs recent figures. Staub is a tireless creator of pacific signs and strong gestures as well. Thus her twofold approach to apperception, of abundance on the one side, emptiness or nothingness on the other side. Nothingness is the womb from which abundance grows. Vera Staub calls this condition ‘pregnance’. Using gold and silver, sun and moon, and the colors of the earth, Staub is revealing what the pregnant harbors in her womb. On beholding of these figures we are invited and allowed to empty ourselves… and what a man found in a state of dreaming seven hundred years ago is awakening again and rising to substantial forms. Abundance and emptiness at once".
