Fantasieblume - Adam StubleyAdam Stubley: Artwork

Let flowers speak! Human communication with flowers goes back a long way, the ancient Egyptians used them, in the Ottoman Empire it became a real science, and today we know the saying “flowers are the smile of the earth”. Tollwood artist Adam Stubley has built an eight meter high fantasy flower for the winter festival. It greets visitors in the entrance area with a bright red glow and is intended to put a smile on their faces.

Werte Menschen InstallationMelanie Siegel and Adam Stubley: Values People

What at first glance seems like a simple wall turns out to be a welcome greeting from Street Art artist Artemisia. Here, the Tollwood motto “Values People!” becomes fragile art as a symbol for the danger and transience of human values.

Eingangskunstwerk Adam Stubley Lasst Blumen sprechen! Die Kommunikation des Menschen mit Blumen reicht weit zurück, die alten Ägypter nutzten sie, im Osmanischen Reich wurde eine echte Wissenschaft daraus, und heute kennt man das Sprichwort „Blumen sind das Lächeln der Erde“. Tollwood-Künstler Adam Stubley hat für diesen Winter eine acht Meter hohe Fantasieblume gebaut. Rot leuchtend empfängt sie die Besucher im Eingangsbereich und soll ihnen ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubern.Urban Art

Thia year again, Andrey von Schlippe’s colourfully shining planets float above the festival centre …
