About the Item
Elin is an elegant figurative bronze sculpture by Nando Kallweit.
This evocative bronze sculpture captures the serene grace of a figure in a lotus yoga pose, projecting a powerful sense of tranquility and balance. Kallweit skillfully crafts the elongated arms reaching skyward, forming an elegant prayer position that draws the viewer's eye upward, symbolizing spiritual ascent.
The minimalist detailing of the figure emphasizes fluidity and form, allowing the pose itself to convey a profound message of inner peace and stability. The patina of the bronze enhances the artwork's organic texture, creating an interplay of light and shadow that adds depth and vitality. Set against a stark backdrop, the sculpture’s simplicity speaks volumes, making it an arresting focal point that invites reflection and meditation. Its unique abstraction and timeless appeal embodies both physical and spiritual harmony.
Kallweit's work is modelled on modern youthful postures but with a nod to the importance of heritage through the stylised Egyptian-influenced head.
Elin was made using a lost wax, or Cire Perdue, bronze casting technique. Nando shapes a wax model that is then submerged in ceramic. The ceramic is then placed in a furnace so that the wax melts to leave a cavity. Molten bronze is then poured into the cavity. Once cooled and hardened the ceramic is broken to retrieve the sculpture. To create the rest of the edition Nando makes a silicon mould of the first piece allowing the wax model to be recreated.ceramic so that the wax melts and the mould is bone dry then pours his molten bronze into the cavity.

Nando Kallweit
Nando Kallweit is a German sculptor working in bronze and oak. As a young boy, he was inspired by the beauty and antiquity of a bust of Nefertiti housed in the Egyptian Museum of Berlin. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, his new-found freedoms allowed him to travel to Egypt and develop his belief in the basic strength and pride inherent in inhumanity. His sculptures seek to emphasize this through elongated forms and upright postures. He reduces the figures to simple gestures and movements creating sculptures with a wonderful interplay between the archaic and the modern; between art and design. Nando’s work has been exhibited across Europe and is held in many private collections. He has produced a number of large scale permanent installation pieces for German municipalities and museums.
