The internationally renowned sculptor and installation artist Monika Sosnowska (born 1972 in Poland) presents her sculpture group Ghosts in Callenberg. The three sculptures made of black steel are installed towering high in a pond in Callenberg. They bear shimmering "roofs" made of textile fabrics that glow at night and are reflected in the water.
