Dieter Appelt - Der Augenturm (The Eye Tower), 1977.
… from The Body: Photographs of the Human Form by William A. Ewing, Chronicle Books, 1994.
In ‘Augenturm (Eye Tower)’, 1977 Appelt built a wooden tower out of tree branches, each one the length of his body, and placed it in the waters of a lake. This rising above the water - the element from which all life springs - by way of a simple construct, can also be read symbolically: as man evolving away from a primary interrelationship with nature into the role of master over nature. The primal harmony of living beings with the natural world, sacrificed in our developmental history, is used by Appelt to reactivate the vestiges of this memory still inside us.
