Eight-Fold Layering, 2022

Steel with a natural finish
85 × 130 × 135 cm
Like in an oversized Mikado game, steel elements are stacked in a complex mesh in such a way that is seems as if they could topple over at any moment, but do not. It seems as if the material has deformed itself under its own weight in great heat. But the artist has placed the steel elements on top of each other so precisely, as if in a giant puzzle, that it only seems random and playful.
