      Blank Hans stands on the dike crossing in Tossens. The sculpture is part of the “Invisible Sights” series, created by the artists Bärbel Deharde and Ute Extra.

      If climate change continues and the storms become stronger, "Blank Hans" will certainly hit the Butjadinger coast more often. It has been in Tossens since 2009. Even when there is no wind, it sits on the top of the dike as a constant reminder made of stainless steel.

        At authentic locations in the Wesermarsch, the acoustic sculptures created by Bärbel Deharde and Ute Extra create visual spaces and auditory worlds in which past events can be traced and the unknown can be rediscovered.

        In the vastness of the marsh between mudflats, meadows and the Weser there are hidden mysterious places, myths and traces of past events that are not revealed at first glance. Time and the forces of nature have destroyed or forgotten many of the sights in this historic landscape. The goal of the two above-mentioned people is to make invisible sights visible again. artists.
