Roland Berger

The sculpture Pillar in Motion captures a moment of transformation – suspended between tension and release, form and movement. The slender vertical bronze seems to twist and stretch, as if following an internal rhythm. Its surface alternates between polished, mirror-like smoothness and gentle deformations reminiscent of waves or organic compression.

A raw, untreated strip breaks through the back of the sculpture, interrupting the fluid surface. This contrast between the gleaming front and the rough rear material heightens the impression of a transitional state – as if the object were caught mid-formation. The interplay of textures hints at erosion, pressure, or the passage of time.

Though entirely abstract, the work evokes a surreal presence – like a fragment from another reality, or the residue of a movement whose origin remains unknown. Berger balances formal clarity with a sense of latent energy – a silent form in which motion still resonates.
