CLEMENS GERSTENBERGER

Clemens Gerstenberger was born in 1966 in Leipzig, Germany. He grew up in an environment that was defined by culture and craftsmanship. At the age of seventeen, he began a two year cabinetmaker apprenticeship. After this apprenticeship he worked in various joinery businesses and in restoration, in order to develop his skills. In 1993 he completed his examination for the master craftsman certificate at Leipzig's Chamber of Skilled Trades... Objects from GERSTENBERGER are inspired by natural forms and the inherent power of the human mind to create. The studio, founded in 1995, manufactures contemporary and unique sculptures, sculptural objects and wall decoration. Apart from wood GERSTENBERGER also uses metal, clay and concrete in the design process. GERSTENBERGER makes furniture and objects for individualists, who consciously withdraw themselves from the Zeitgeist and demonstrate this mindset by surrounding themselves with representative objects.
