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.
