SculptorFabian Oefneris a master of deconstruction.
Piece by piece, he dismantles ordinary objects and transforms them into high art by highlighting their inner workings.
The results are artworks that are familiar from a distance but begin to dissolve as viewers approach them.
Oefner’s inspiration came from Werner Heisenberg’s famous Uncertainty Principle.
I applied this idea to these six sculptures, Oefner tells My Modern Met.
The more accurately we see one view, the less clearly we see the other.

Your interaction with the sculpture ultimately determines its appearance.
Each sculpture invites the viewer in to study its details and provides newfound intimacy with these familiar objects.
They all record something, Oefner shares.

The clock keeps track of time or you could also say that it records it.
The one thing a little less obvious is the sneakers.
But to me, sneakers are like recording machines that keep track of our motion.

The shoes used are 1985 Nike Cortez.
Fabian Oefner deconstructed six ordinary objects and transformed them into fragmented resin sculptures.

Each object was selected for the way it relates to recording human memories.
