Halcyon Days: Sculpture (Luise Kimme & Stefan Falke)

German sculptor Luise Kimme has been part of the Tobago landscape for more than 20 years; her Caribbean oeuvre is recorded here in Stefan Falke‘s photographs. Kimme’s life-size wood figures combine themes from local folklore with images from classical myth, medieval art and modernist dance, but the rhythm of their poise, always about to spring into exuberant action, is inspired by her fellow citizens of the village of Bethel: the swing and lilt of their everyday motion and the stylized drama of ceremony and celebration.
