ABOUT

 

Architectural Fragments is the continuing work of Manuel André Dornhege.
 
The individual works are autonomous interventions while simultaneously forming part of a larger architectural structure. They emerge as sculptural works operating within the tension between object, painting, and design.

 

Geometry, material, and proportion define form and presence.
 

The fragments exist in space and suggest a larger spatial structure that remains only partially visible. In an extended sense, they form an imagined spatial landscape between object, architecture, and spatial projection.
 

From this practice, site specific works and individual objects emerge in dialogue with space and context.


Since 2016, Manuel André Dornhege has been working in his Berlin studio at the intersection of architecture, sculpture, and painting.
