Artem Haag: APOSTROPHE, selfless

Artem Haag's perspective shows imperfections ... but is it really selfless?

This artwork is part of our campaign "Perspective matters". With start'19 in mind, we asked artists what they saw in the apostrophe from our event logo – or if it even is an apostrophe in their eyes. The responses to this call for entries revealed a multitude of perspectives that we want to share with our readers. More information about the campaign can be found HERE. 

 

Artem Haag's apostrophe first flew to us via Instagram. He called it Selfless. And indeed, it seems possible to lose oneself in the forms of this work. This impression is supported by the chosen material, which stands out through cracks and imperfections and leaves a very special impression. Or what do you see?

Are you inspired by this perspective? Don’t hesitate to show your own, then! To get you started we have prepared a craft template – download it HERE. As part of our campaign, we want to encourage everyone to look at their own perspective and maybe re-think it. While making such a small sculpture, you have the best opportunity to turn both things around: the paper sculpture and your own perspective ... we're curious to see what comes out of it!
