Proposal (not selected) for a landart group-show, Sancy (FR).
Sculpture: Wood, metal. Approx. 470 x 290 x 560cm.
A dingy (entirely made of wood) floats in a lake. Where normally the outboard-motor is mounted, a semicircle is cut-out. Two poles, connected with a beam on top, rise above this. Underneath this beam is a metal plate, its slanted bottom-side reminds of a guillotine.
The outline of a tree is cut out of the plate.
