“The Moebius Band is a ring with a single closed surface and combines a simple band structure with many aesthetically pleasing variations of the form.
Max Bill has shown a number of those. He calls them single-faced. Inspired by his writing and by the fascination of outer and inner surfaces of a structure I had the pleasure to discover a wealth of new possible structures within this group of figures. I am modeling those structures in ceramics, man-made stone, and metal.
In my former profession as a teacher of draftsmen it was important to find de-convolutions of three-dimensional hollow bodies into plain sheets.
Today, it fascinates me how three-dimensional bodies are generated from plane sheets. I am in awe to see the generated curves in space, their penetrations, the endless-ness of their borders, and the rotations of the surface, spanned by their borders.”
