Klecohlavy
KLECOHLAVY V and VI 1995, 2010
The first Klecohlavy were made from the riveted strip in 1987, another from the iron wire for the backyard at the Vladislav Hall at the Prague Castle exhibition in 1995. The last three of the thick logs were for Mrs. Meda Mládková to the backyard of Museum Kampa.
