Peter von Tiesenhausen, "Drawn by Desire," 2017

500 aluminum plates, 50' high

Congratulations to Peter von Tiesenhausen and David Cantine, whose works have been installed at the new Simons at Londonderry Mall.

Peter von Tiesenhausen's 50 foot sculpture 'Drawn by Desire' is a hanging installation made up of 500 cut aluminum plates showing small human figures. Suspended from the second floor ceiling, the installation appears as an abstract grouping of figures. When viewed from the perspective of the first level entrance, the plates line up to form the silhouette of a monumental 'Watcher' figure, a recurring motif in von Tiesenhausen's work.
