Andreas Buisman

In my work I polish, clean and transform for the spectator. I respect their given form, don’t change but translate the boulders and columns I work with, considering myself a servant to those rocks – formed millions of years ago. My stones are the whales of the land. Cruising Australia and other countries I constantly search for them. In the lucky moments they will lift their mighty bodies out of the earth and make themselves visible. Then the hard work begins: polishing the rough skin for hours I reveal their hidden identity – glimpsing the secret of continuance.
