ROMAN SIGNER (CH)

"Signer's works have acquired the label 'time-sculpture'. They share traditional sculpture's concern with the crafting of physicalmaterials in three dimensions, but they extend that concern into what may or may not be characterised as the fourth dimension: the dimension of time. Variously combining three-dimensional objects, live action, still photography and moving-image documentation, Signer's time-sculptures frame episodes of the containment and release of energy - always with ingenuity, often with captivating, epigrammatic swiftness and irresistible humour."

(Rachel Withers, Roman Signer, 2007)
