Thomas Rentmeister’s multi-faceted oeuvre features a great range of materials, such as banal everyday objects, food products, or elements from daily life, which form the starting point of his artistic dialogue.  Viewers are confronted with a multi-layered ambiguity of interpretation, which stands in direct correlation to the individual associations evoked by certain objects or personal experiences, in turn brought about by everyday materials that are used for shaping the piece or finishing its surface, for instance multi-purpose glue, used lever-arch files, or the mirror-smooth surface of his polyester sculptures.
