SPACE OF BECALMED BEINGS

Walking Figures

2009 / bronze / 270 x 89,9 x 140 cm

Walking Figures is a group of headless cast-iron figure. They appear to be walking aimlessly without sight, and the sombre tone makes reference to both time and loss. The figures were identically cast, but later given subtle individual identities through various surface treatments. A larger group of figures, cast simultaneously in the artist’s studio, is titled Agora and is on permanent display in Chicago’s Grant Park.
