Thorsten Brinkmann happens on the ingredients for his sculptures, photographs, and site-specific installations at bulky waste sites, abandoned by civilization. Commonplace and biza rre materials are piled up to form pedestals and sculptures, or they are transformed into cabinets of wonders. The artist even uses his own body as an objet trouvé. For his photo series Portraits of a Serial Collector, for example, Brinkmann puts on found articles of clothing and stages himself in a setting that is likewise made of found objects.Our Collector’s Edition is taken from this series and is–together with a frame individually made by the artist out of found pieces of wood–an authentic art object at an attractive price!
