Zurich (pts018/30.07.2025/15:00) - From August 20 to 24, 2025, the bustling halls of Zurich's Main Station will once again transform into a vibrant nexus of contemporary art as the SWISSARTEXPO returns. Among the standout exhibitors this year are Florian Scharnagl and Florian Decker, co-founders of the pioneering art project TIMBART, whose revolutionary wooden sculptures promise to captivate audiences with their geometric elegance and visionary ethos.
At the heart of TIMBART lies a daring fusion of craftsmanship and digital precision. Founded by Scharnagl and Decker in the Austrian Alps, TIMBART (short for "Timber Art") reimagines sculpture through the lens of technology. Their low-poly animal figures, notably the commanding "The Bear, Walnut Edition," embody a minimalist aesthetic shaped from sustainably sourced wood. Through the interplay of angular forms and rich organic material, the sculptures transcend their medium, becoming totems of balance between tradition and innovation.
Florian Scharnagl brings to this collaboration a deep-rooted passion for digital manufacturing. His affinity for precision technologies complements Florian Decker's artisanal mastery, resulting in art that is both technically exacting and emotionally resonant. TIMBART's works are not merely decorative; they are philosophical artifacts. Each piece evokes the clarity of mathematical form while inviting reflection on nature, identity, and sustainability.
The visual impact of TIMBART sculptures is immediate and powerful. Their polygonal contours distill natural subjects into faceted abstractions, echoing both the crystalline geometry of digital rendering and the timeless simplicity of primitive carvings. The choice of locally harvested walnut lends a luxurious warmth, reinforcing the brand's commitment to eco-conscious artistry. With their tactile allure and poised compositions, these sculptures resonate with a broad audience, bridging the digital and the organic, the contemporary and the archetypal.
By placing these works in the public context of SWISSARTEXPO 2025, TIMBART reaffirms its mission to democratize art. Their vision transcends gallery walls, aiming to embed meaningful, sustainable aesthetics into everyday life. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to engage with a practice that fuses technical innovation with soulful materiality.
Visitors can experience TIMBART's signature creations live at SWISSARTEXPO 2025, from August 20 to 24 at Zurich's Main Station.
