Counterforce

Object / YearW–012 / 2023
ClassificationOutdoor sculpture
MaterialWeathering steel, stainless cable
Dimensions5200 × 4100 × 1900 mm
Two rusted steel frames held in tension outdoors

Two leaning frames made stable by the force pulling them together.

Counterforce is structurally incomplete without tension. Two weathering-steel frames lean away from one another while a single stainless cable draws them into equilibrium.

Rain continues the finishing process. Rust migrates down the broad planes but stops sharply at the polished tension hardware, making maintenance and ageing part of the work's visible logic.
