Everyday People 2025 Sylt
Dancing on the beach -
Joy of life by the sea
Since April 2025, the Everyday People have brought a new lightness to Sylt: With the installation “ Dancing on the Beach ”, they celebrate the beautiful moments of life itself on the beach of Wenningstedt.
In the middle of the promenade, the concrete figures stand as symbols of carefree, unforgettable moments that are not only experienced by the sea.
Laura Lechner says: " With the dancing figures, I want to make the joy of life visible – these quiet, precious moments in which we are completely with ourselves and at the same time connected with others ."
The installation complements the existing permanent exhibition of everyday people on Sylt and invites visitors to become part of this cheerful scene themselves.
Looking back: Girls' Night Out 2024
"Girls' Night Out" - that is the title of the work by Laura Lechner, which was first exhibited in Wenningstedt on Sylt in 2024.
With the five celebrating women, Laura Lechner wants to highlight the importance of friendship, fun and shared experiences for the viewer.
The rough texture of the concrete creates a tension between aesthetics and handcrafted charm. Details and deliberately created irregularities make the dancers appear more lifelike while simultaneously conveying a certain robustness and durability.
Thank you for the countless messages and great pictures we received about the girls' night out!

Review 2023
The everyday people actually fit perfectly into the cityscape. But this year, the new concrete figures by artists Laura & Christel Lechner seem to have been made for the island of Sylt.
The Boule group invites viewers to pause for a moment and take a closer look. It is the aura of timelessness, the flair of the everyday and the feeling of deceleration that Laura & Christel Lechner want to bring to life.
"Our works are not meant to be admired from a distance of three metres," reveals Laura Lechner. The same applies to the new sculpture group: touching, circling, interaction and, of course, the odd selfie are not only allowed, but even encouraged.

The Alltagsmenschen are always a wonderful enrichment for Mosbach and they conjure up a smile on your face with their cheerful charisma.
