>> Review: "Artist in the Marketplace"

She stood facing the wall, her eyes closed, counting numbers.
In her hand she had an apple that she wanted to give you, but didn't dare.
When she finishes counting, she will start to look for you,
but you don't really need to hide, cause she will never finish counting.

Leaning on the wall a real life size casting of my own figure. The figure poses reminiscent of the children game hide and seek. One hand supporting the head lining against the wall, shifting the body weighs forward, the eyes closed the head is facing down, on the original cast placed a plastic exaggerated rubber nose. The other hand is going through the wall, holding an apple; the hand gesture is in between giving and taking. The figure is dressed in regular clothed; the shoes are shining red, with a gum sticks to one of the shoes heels.

The frozen moment accompany by sound, an hour cycle of counting from one to two thousand and two. The real time sound of counting places the sculpture in the real world where the linearity of time is inevitable.
