french artist morgane tschiember explores illusions of material properties in here series 'iron maiden'. the series of installation pieces was first exhibited in 2007 at galerie loevenbruck in paris, where tschiember lives and works. the installation consists of large scale sheets of lacquered aluminum which are bent and arranged to give the illusion of a much lighter and pliable material. the sheets are arranged on the floor and wall, seemingly bending at the will of gravity. the vivid colours and glossy sheen amplify the surrealism of the pieces.
