About this artwork
His helmet conceals identity, while the damaged surface of the body suggests time, exposure and what remains after collapse. Small traces of colour and metallic light endure, hinting at memory, technology and resilience.
The Watcher - 2026… is an Oldbies Interlude: a standalone sculpture connected to the wider narrative universe without belonging to the original audiobook characters.
This sculpture is hand-finished mixed media, built on a resin and metal core with sculpted clay and epoxy layers, and finished with metallic acrylic paints and selective colour. Each piece is individually worked by hand, making every sculpture unique.

Each work begins with a story and character design. Some figures are modelled directly by hand, while others are developed through digital 3D experimentation before taking physical form. Van der Linde then works and reworks the sculptures by hand, using clay, epoxy, patina and metallic paint to introduce texture and character. Selected works are cast in bronze and patinated, while others remain as individually hand-finished mixed-media sculptures.
Many of his figures inhabit original narrative worlds, accompanied by audio stories that extend the sculpture beyond form into experience. Others stand alone, exploring recurring themes of memory, creation, decay, responsibility and our relationship with time.
