Schiffsfarbe / Strandfund, Gießharz, MDF / Rostpatina, 157 x 20 x 27 cm, ca. 50 kg, 2020
Ein Spaziergang am Strand, ein Fund im Sand,- auf den ersten Blick ein großer, bunter Stein. Beim genaueren Hinsehen und Aufheben stellt sich heraus, dass es ein Klumpen unterschiedlicher Farben ist, ein Über-Bord-Wurf von einem auf Reede liegenden Schiff.
Mit Gedanken Globalisierung, weltweitem Güterverkehr und Umweltzerstörung entstand das Kunstwerk „IN MEMORIAM I“, Zeitgeschehen konserviert als Panoptikum,- vielleicht ein Blick aus der Zukunft auf das Heute.

Jan Witte-Kropius is a contemporary German artist known for his diverse artistic practices, which encom sculpture, painting, graphics, installations, and public art. His work reflects a deep exploration of existential themes such as the search for the meaning of life, the rhythms of nature, and the mysteries of human origins and destiny.
Witte-Kropius draws inspiration from his observations of nature and his extensive study trips to cultures around the world, including Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Oceania. The influence of original and archaic forms of expression, particularly from Papua New Guinea and Colombia, is evident in his art. His work is characterized by expressive form reduction, figurative abstraction, and the use of unconventional materials.
A distinctive feature of Witte-Kropius’s art is his use of flint (flintstone or pierre à fusil) to create figurative sculptures. This material, known for its hardness and brittleness yet naturally shaped into softness, is used by the artist to craft archaic and mysterious female torsos with an erotic aura reminiscent of Stone Age fertility goddesses.
Witte-Kropius has been actively represented in galleries across , , Austria, Poland, and Denmark, participating in both solo and group exhibitions. His art has also made a significant impact in public spaces, with several of his fountains and sculptures prominently displayed in urban locations and marketplaces.
