Vanessa German’s latest solo exhibition at Kasmin, titled “GUMBALL—there is absolutely no space between body and soul,” delves into the concept of spiritual attainment and the power of sculpture as a form of social activism. Drawing inspiration from the Sanskrit word “siddhi,” which signifies perfection and spiritual wellbeing, German’s sculptures are not merely art pieces but embodiments of a higher spiritual energy.

The exhibition features a series of monumental sculptural heads that serve as cosmic maps, symbolizing a sacred space that embraces the creative potential of all individuals. Inspired by ancient Mesoamerican Olmec heads, German’s sculptures exude a sense of weight and significance, inviting viewers to contemplate deeper meanings and connections.

Each sculpture is crafted using a diverse range of materials, including rose quartz, wood, plaster, and marble tile, infused with personal and poetic references. The descriptions accompanying the artworks go beyond mere lists of materials, weaving a narrative of emotions, memories, and metaphysical healing properties associated with the minerals and stones used in the pieces.

In addition to the sculptural heads, the exhibition also includes a series of “fallen figures” that mirror the dramatic poses of vogue dancers in ballroom competitions. These figures challenge societal norms and confront issues of bigotry, oppression, and violence, reclaiming power from oppressive forces.

Through her art, Vanessa German invites viewers to contemplate the interconnectedness of body and soul, the transformative power of creativity, and the resilience of marginalized communities. “GUMBALL—there is absolutely no space between body and soul” is a testament to the artist’s spiritual practice and her commitment to using art as a tool for social change.
