Tumbling 1 ( somersault) Sculpture

Holding onto one’s body, as if it was a bundle that might fall apart, this bronze sculpture of a figure is readying itself for continuing its movement backwards, across its neck and head. A figure and sculpture only just in balance, it is caught in mid-motion. With all of my three small figurative sculptures “Tumblings” I set my intention to fix three fleeting moments within one succession of movements, that probably in real life would escape one’s notice because of its speed. On an emotional level, I wanted to focus on a natural movement, in which one looses momentarily control . One might possibly feel helpless, or alternatively be filled with a pleasurable sense of dizziness, and certainly a loss of the habitual upright perspective on life. One is thrown into life , caught in movement - rather than standing ( or sitting) above it . To me, it appears that falling is diametrically opposed to standing : it looks more spontaneous, unintended, possibly undignified, or un-heroic.
