Baumwelten are borne of negative impressions of three different tree barks: a Prunus Armeniaca cast in yellow, a Quercus Suber, the cork oak, in sky blu, both from the Appia Antica; the Euonymus Japonicus from Venice, cast in a candid white reminiscent of the evergreen tree’s beautiful white flowers. Stemming from each sculpture are delicate branches created and lamp blown by Maestro Vittorio Costantini. The wild flowers are from the island of St Erasmo.

Janine Thüngen-Reichenbach (b. Germany, 1964) lives and works between Rome and Venice. She was born in Germany and has been working as a professional sculptor for 20 years, enjoying international success. She is inspired by the contrasts and juxtapositions found in humans, nature and space; her materials range from bronze, clay, rubber and glass to sound and plants.

Vittorio Costantini (b.Italy, 1944) considers himself a great observer of the small universe that, every day, surrounds us.
