Presented on this page are the fruits of an artistic endeavor called Heidnischwerk. "Heidnischwerk" was the derogatory name given to medieval pagan-derived imagery that certain zealous clergy were campaigning against; translated into English, the German word means "heathen works." But in this era of Heathen resurgence, we have chosen this name with pride.
The purpose of Heidnischwerk is to make high quality sculptures available to those interested in and dedicated to the Northern Ways. These first manifestations are part of a series of reliefs depicting some of the most important Gods and Goddesses of the Nordic pantheon.
According to the Germanic ideal, the Gods are understood as the personifications of cosmic natural forces which on the macrocosmic level also define ideal manhood: creativity, poetic inspiration, wisdom, courage, loyalty, and fierceness. Conversely, the diverse Goddesses are personages with concentrated desirable female attributes, such as beauty, endurance, intelligence, fertility and so forth.
Regardless of whether you are a practicing heathen or not, it is hoped that these "graven images" will speak to you with renewed force.
