Animalia Fragiles

Oliver Neu's animal sculptures, created from porcelain and building clay, have an equally naturalistic and alienated-abstract effect. The broken surfaces and fragmentary body constructions - reminiscent of surreal fantasy creatures - come together in the eye of the beholder to form an exciting, contradictory image.
