The artist decided to join The Brain Project because
dementia is present in his immediate environment.
He used the rusty hammer heads in his sculpture
as a metaphor for the human brain. Over the years,
the iron hammer head develops a layered structure
of corrosion products, which continue to generate
all over the areas – comparable to Alzheimer's and
dementia, a progressive degenerative disease
of the brain, in which thinking and memory
become seriously impaired.
