The artist wishes to integrate the viewer with sculpture and nature. The bench is metal clad featuring a pair of life-size pigeons in welded steel with silver and gold leaf – they are precious. The composition juxtaposes the industrial against organic. The bench suggests the natural, harmonious order of Mother Nature.


Die kunstenaar wil die kyker met die beeldhouwerk en die natuur laat integreer. Die bankie is met metaal oorgetrek en bevat twee lewensgrootte duiwe van gesweisde staal met silver en goudblad – hulle is kosbaar. Die komposisie plaas die industriële langs die organiese. Die bankie suggereer die natuurlike, eensgesinde orde van Moeder Natuur.
