Chapel for rushing pedestrians
Václav Fiala (*1955)
The sculpture Chapel for the Hurrying Pedestrian belongs to a series of sculptures he calls sculpture-buildings. The statue should properly stand on the sidewalk in people's path so that they can or must pass between its walls. The inner space is made of two segments that embrace the body of the person. How that feels is for everyone to judge for themselves. Inside, the acoustics change, the eyes turn to the sky. and that is the moment of stopping in the daily rush.
