Guardians

painted steel

Two steel columns stand as guardians. Just a cut through the steel plate creates the positive and negative of the female silhouette and forms the soft contour for the vertical lines for the columns. Not always recognizable at first glance, but from different perspectives and in interaction with light and shadow within the object, the viewer becomes aware of the female figure.
