Mixed Media Sculpture (2019): Transformation of Industrial Materials
Mart Visser’s Mixed Media Sculpture (2019) is an impressive work of art that transforms old conveyor belts and drive belts into an organic-looking sculpture. These materials, originally designed for technical and industrial applications, are reused by Visser and transformed into an abstract representation of a head. The soft, wavy lines and round shapes suggest a human form, while the use of the rough, functional material offers an intriguing contrast. This contrast between the hard, technical material and the soft, human form raises questions about the relationship between humans and technology.

Visser’s Vision: Ethical Reflection and Aesthetic Innovation
Mart Visser is known for his ability to transform everyday and industrial materials into meaningful works of art. In this sculpture, he explores the boundary between nature and technology, combining the mechanical character of the drive belts with the organic shapes that refer to the human head. Through this transformation, Visser invites the viewer to reflect on the influence of man on nature and the symbiotic relationship between technology and the human body. The sculpture is not merely a visual object, but a reflection on the ethical and aesthetic dimensions of our interaction with the world around us. This Mixed Media Sculpture is a powerful example of how art can serve as a medium for reflection and dialogue, with Visser combining his technical background and artistic vision to create a work that is both visually and conceptually rich.
