Pedestal problem
Sculptors often face the so-called “pedestal problem. That is simply inherent in the existence of gravity. Does the pedestal belong to the statue and form a single unit, or is it only a practical form?

Solution
In this work, I want to settle with this for once by fusing pedestal and sculpture. It seems as if the pedestal here has swallowed the statue and over time it has fossilised. It’s a shame that humans haven’t existed long enough to appear as fossils. We’ll just have to hang on here for a while.
