The face speaks.
(Emmanuel Lévinas)

 
This statement is the point of departure for an art project of the sculptor Günther Heilfurth and the photographer Beta Siebel. The project involves sculptures in granite and large-format photomontages of faces.

In the photomontages, the face of a woman, depicted against changing backgrounds, tells ever changing stories.

In the sculptures, different fragments of faces appear, which gaze at the observer.
