The water goddess by André Heller is a gift by the artist to his good friend Friedensreich Hundertwasser in order to honour his ecological engagement. Its construction combines three interlinked three dimensional steel constructions that form the body & hands. The combined weight of those is five tons. Head & hands have been filled with 40 cubic metres of humus to give enough space to the 4.800 Ivy & similar plants to grow & flourish. An integrated irrigation system provides fresh water & fertilization. In a height of three meters the sculpture’s mouth is installed, from which flows fresh water.
