Encounter with the ‘stones’

Abstract

Eva-Gesine Wegner is a German sculptress who visits Malta frequently and works mostly in stone, wood and clay. She connects the architecture of the Maltese Neolithic temples with the body of the goddesses’ statuettes. Wagner also relates her personal emotions and spirituality with that of the temples. Her sculptures reflect the sense of lineage the artist held as a female and her response to Mother Nature. Most of her works convey the spiritual aspects of fertility, life and death.
