This artist initially worked at large pop concerts. On the computer, he made video images with all kinds of effects. Suddenly, he had enough of that. He decided to start creating his own visual spectacle.
Without computers, with plastic bags, inflatable hoses, hairdryers and fans. When devising his moving sculptures, he follows his curiosity about what can be done with them. In his artwork Cause and Effect, a small fan blows air into a suspended thin fabric. The ‘effect’ of this looks magnificent: bulging waves that spread across the cloth. As if someone is throwing a stone into water.
The German visual artist Dominic Kießling (1984) was trained as an industrial designer. He has developed his own visual language with his low‑tech kinetic installations, which stimulate the imagination to the maximum using minimal means.
