About the art
Artist statement
Inspired by the first line of Vasalis's poem 'Time'.
When you talk about stones and times gone by, the idea of Stonehenge quickly emerges. In this sculpture I play with this fact of antiquity, and moving around in time. The rough sides still refer to the old stone. The carved part to get moving.
The sculpture is made of two pieces of Celtic brown, an Irish bluestone. Part is rough, part carved with the pointed chisel. You can vary how you arrange the two parts together. The stone is also suitable for outdoor use.
Size: 2-piece, 70 x 20 x 20 cm and 60 x 18 x 20 cm
