Big Coat

Erwin Wurm works out of Vienna and Limburg, Austria, who sees every day materials as interesting and useful. He is quoted as saying My work speaks about the whole entity of a human being: the physical, the spiritual, the psychological and the political. He approaches his work with a sense of humour, creating pieces that often seem abstract and whimsical, and this can certainly seen in this abstraction of the human form and clothing found in Big Coat.
