Sündenfall is an art spot featuring an oak sculpture by Thomas Rees in Kirchzarten, Germany’s Black Forest region. The sculpture stands about 2.2 metres high. Its oak construction and roughly 0.7-metre diameter give the artwork a clear physical presence. Kirchzarten provides the setting for this artwork. The sculpture draws on the biblical Fall of Man, a story associated with Adam, Eve, temptation, and an apple. That story gives the piece a recognisable frame. Rees shifts attention towards human freedom and rebellion against divine prohibitions within this familiar narrative. The work raises questions about human freedom. It also considers whether people have the right to defy divine rules, connecting belief with personal choice. Faith enters the sculpture’s subject through its biblical foundation. Together, the themes place Sündenfall within a conversation about faith, obedience, freedom, and the human condition. The wooden form keeps that conversation concrete.
