1234

Background

"1234"

      This sculpture is a story of love and redemption. It’s about a man and a woman who suddenly find themselves neighbors after having lived in the same, small village for a number of years without ever encountering each other. Both were in times of profound transition and change. Life evolved and they reached out to each other.
      Very early one morning, about half-past midnight, they took bets on how far their respective windows were from each other and then went outside to measure that distance. They were amazed to find that the length was 123-feet and 4-inches.
      So began a gradual, collaborative process of writing a 123’-4” poem that was still underway when this sculpture was completed. And it will most likely never be finished.
