About this artwork
The sculpture provokes with the way the material is treated. The static, massive and heavy stone block has been turned into a light, breathable and moving material with a dynamic structure. The forms carry the charge of artistic freedom and convey this positive energy to the audience. There is only one point of contact with the earth's surface, and in order for the sculpture to stand upright, a perfect balance of towering forms is needed. Three materials…
were used - pink marble from Transylvania, black marble from Bulgaria and green-red granite from Brazil for the pedestal, which makes the details more exciting and contrasting.
