About: Stein ist Stille - Beyond the Silence

Dörte Berner is a Namibian sculptor who connects the past with the present and human beings with the supernatural world. Her beautiful sculptures combine the spiritual, moral, and accepted values of the world and the cosmos, striving to reveal a truth beyond a mundane world. Her working material is a natural stone, and she prefers to work with material that is part of the earth. Based on her life’s work, Dörte Berner has published her first book Stein ist Stille – Beyond the Silence. Paging through the book, the reader will be enticed by the vast amount of detail and thought that has gone into the making of each sculpture. Divided into themes, from Humanity and Existence to Lightness and Laughter that shaped the life and work of the artist, the journey is accompanied by short descriptions, complimentary poetry and breathtaking photography.
