An over-life-size female figure is reclining forward on the very edge of a cliff. The tension is created not just by the physicality of the position, but by the ambiguity of the movement. While one arm embraces the body closely and intimately, the other is stretched forward over the empty space to reach out. The contradiction is agonizing: the woman’s mouth is closing on her arm. The feeling of unrest is carried further by the dichotomy between the figure’s overall muscularity and the fragility of the movement. Combined, they create a dialogue between vulnerability and strength.
