The steel sculpture "Knight on Guard" loosely follows my previous silhouette and figural stylizations. However, the overall tone is different both in the form of stylization of the body and the focus on the small details that are decisive for the artwork and which are characteristic of the image of a knight. 
The theme itself, the figure of a knight on guard, is not an image of a warrior, but a knight for whom honor and pride were something for which he was willing to die. The theme is the guardian of honor, loyalty and honesty. 
An old rusted sheet metal is used on the body, which is partially embossed so that the surface sculpture is completed by shadows. The other parts are forged. 
The sculpture is signed on the base.

I am a sculptor, artist and designer. After a long period of custom work, I feel the need to create art without assignment, on my own initiative. I gather inspiration in nature and in everyday life. Inspiration is everywhere. My works in the field of applied art, design, but also sculpture are sold in galleries in the Czech Republic. I create mostly from metal and I build my art on a masterful craft. My work has different forms. I graduated from the School of Arts and Crafts in Turnov and since then I have been devoting myself to design and craft.
