Balancing Boys

Bronze Cast 45 x 15 x 15 cm

Edition of 10

These two boys are experiencing gravity’s pull in opposite directions. The top figure and balloons are drawn upwards whilst the bottom figures are pulled down. The bottom figure is doing a handstand while the figure on top is hanging from his foot. If the hanging boy lets go he will fall upwards, into the sky. Leaving the hand-standing boy to lose balance and fall down. Picture the sculpture upside down for another point of view.
