The work of Silvia Wille is concerned with the union of different forms. In her large-scale piece produced specially for the museum space, »One Thing Leads to the Next«, the artist succeeds in combining the monumental with levity and the geometrical with the organic. Cable ties are the programmatic material for a sculpture that extends five metres up to the ceiling. Using thousands of small individual pieces, she has threaded together a complex and almost alive configuration that seems to be growing out of a skeletal cube. Silvia Wille makes art from plastic. She uses only utility items made of this material, which she frees of their everyday functions and gives a new definition in her sculptures. Thus apart from cable ties she has used washers or buttons, which she arranges with wires to produce fragile wall sculptures. The artist, who lives in Mannheim, finds this cheap disposable material ideal for highlighting social or political issues and for characterizing our fast-moving times.
