About the book >.>.> Rui Chafes Abgrund, authored by Anna Maria Ehrmann Schindelbeck, delves into the artistic work of Rui Chafes, focusing on his sculptures that challenge conventional boundaries. These pieces explore the delineations between the inner and outer worlds, matter and mind, and the individual versus the universal. Chafes? sculptures embody a spiritual energy that expands perception and opens pathways to uncharted territories, capturing moments of movement that are permanently preserved within their forms.Chafes' choice of iron, a material forged in fire, exemplifies the principle of transformation inherent in all life. His artistic process demands both physical exertion and exceptional craftsmanship, achieved only when he attains a harmonious relationship with the material. Each step in creating his sculptures is marked by an awareness of the irreversible nature of his work. The resultant energy from the production process imbues his sculptures with a magnetic presence, engaging and captivating viewers. Their unusual and alien appearances may initially provoke irritation, but ultimately inspire introspection and the exploration of new aspects of consciousness.Among the highlighted works is Not Weighing Upon the Earth (2005), a striking sculpture that offers an impression of floating while challenging conventional perceptions of gravity.

Another notable piece, Your Hands (1998/2013), consists of five suspended elements that create an illusion of flight, encouraging viewers to navigate around the installation and appreciate its dynamic, three-dimensional form. Through these innovative approaches, Rui Chafes? work captures the essence of movement and transformation, compelling observers to reconsider their understanding of experience.…
