Alexander Hohla
Alexander Hohla
b.1968
Alexander Hohla brings together the precision of a physicist and the intuition of an artist. His transition from experimental physics to sculpture is a story of reinvention, one that reflects a deep curiosity about structure, light, and material. After years working with lasers and studying the behavior of light, he turned to marble, a medium that allows him to explore form in a tangible, enduring way.
His background in experimental physics shapes the way he approaches sculpture. The same meticulous care once applied to analyzing the properties of light now guides his process of uncovering the hidden potential within marble. His work is an exploration of balance, between strength and lightness, structure and spontaneity, science and art.
Marble, with its rich history and timeless presence, provides the perfect medium for Alexander’s artistic vision. While rooted in tradition, his work carries a contemporary sensibility, reflecting themes of resilience, harmony, and transformation. Each piece invites reflection, embodying both technical mastery and emotional depth.
Alexander sees sculpture as a means of creating presence, an anchor in space that fosters a sense of calm and contemplation. Whether in private collections, galleries, or public spaces, his work is designed to stand the test of time, connecting past and present through form and material.

From the Möbius strip to sculptural poetry, Alexander Hohla fuses scientific precision with artistic passion, shaping stone into forms that pulse with balance, movement, and quiet ecstasy. His work is a lifelong exploration of infinity, fragility, and the joy of creation.
Prof. ART Alen Novoselec
Dean, Academy of Fine Arts, Zagreb
Hohla pushes stone to its limits, stopping just before it breaks, to reveal forms of striking elegance and meditative depth. His work is a rare fusion of precision, integrity, and sculptural poetry.
Petar Dolić
academic sculptor
From physicist to sculptor, Alexander Hohla’s late artistic awakening reveals a quiet mastery, fluid, sensual forms shaped by marble, science, and time itself. His work is a tactile invitation to engage, to feel, and to experience sculpture as living dialogue.
