The human body exists in its physical vertical position, is fragmented in tiny parts and spread out to all possible directions. The external gets unfold and suspended shaping in a natural circular movement, momentary possibilities. Every single part is autonomous and totally essential for the entire result. The physical scale of every fragment and the whole, the positioning, diffusion and rotation, provoke the viewer to an inner occupation claiming a part in the piece.
Axel in motion is a reminder of our regular internal occupation, which consists questioning, but also reconfirmation. The imposing presence of the total once again competes with the fragile quality of the fragmentary while repetition and fragmentation provoke refutation or reassurance.
