On a circular base mapping continents in earthy and greenish tones rises a slender, immensely long iron ladder that curves slightly at its summit. High up on this impossible structure, a tiny human figure grips the rungs in a meditative pause. The work poses an urgent existential metaphor in the face of contemporary vertigo: a call to halt the planetary march and reconnect with what is essential, seen from an unlikely vantage point.
