FRAGILE TRUST
Anchor in Ice
Studio
Oslo, Norge
May 2024
Fragile Trust is a sculpture dedicated to uncertainty. The sculpture stands as a testament to the intricate dance between strength and vulnerability, with its title in contradiction to its material. This sculpture portrays the paradox of an anchor, a symbol of something heavy and safe, fashioned from the ephemeral matieral ice.
The contradiction between the symbol of stability and the fragility of its material invites contemplation. It speaks to the precarious nature of trust – how something so essential, like an anchor, can be as transient as melting ice when placed in uncertain circumstances.
The sculpture serves as a reminder of the delicate balance required to maintain trust in relationships, be it between individuals, communities. Or in other words with nature. It prompts viewers to reflect on the strength found in vulnerability and the beauty that arises from embracing the fleeting moments of connection in an ever-changing world.
