Inspired by dance, this sculpture evokes the lightness, fragility and power of creation in a perpetual search for balance. Imbalance is created by spiral movement – in a frantic rhythm – of men and women bound by universal love. The ring – composed of bronze figures – gives strength to the dagger. Yet it appears fragile. This inner emptiness disturbs our gaze – we are being pulled between strength and fragility.
