Albertus Van Wyk

Former dental practicioner I converted to Art practice almost Naturaly during a journey of one year in New Caledonia, where i was invited to go in a creative hermitage in the bush at Tao to prepare an Exposition of my work with Drifted Wood's .I produced about 30 opera's , mainly with a method that i called 'pigmentary impregnation' where the colors penetrates the wood. Pleased with the result's but not satisfied as far as the creative standard's ,I thought it would be nice to work with metal on these object's ,of course my first idea was to use Bronz.Since i am pretendet to have a creative mind i started creating, in the bush and during my journey there intellectualy my specific alloy:Aenors a quartenary composition of some gold,some more silver,much cuper to create mass and as much iron molecules as gold to ad a specific electromagnetic resonance to the alloy, wich turned out to be also the signature of my work's!( if it react's to a magnet i'ts aenors)
