Artwork description:

This bronze sculpture on a granite plinth captures a unique moment when one fencer defends his opponent's lunge.
In real fencing, fencers are usually only in this pose for a very short time, often only a fraction of a second.

The fencing duel - like most of my sports sculptures - is a stoppage of time and movement at the most typical moment for the given sport, because it perpetuates the microscopic time periods of the dynamics of movement into an eternal and unchanging static form.
The sculpture is suitable not only for fans of fencing, history and martial arts, but as a symbol of attention and preparedness for anyone who wants to always be ready for the pitfalls of life and at the same time maintain inner and outer peace and stability.

Materials used:

bronze on granit pedestal
