Taking a break, drop the armour

If we do not wear physical armour, we all wear emotional armour. To take it off, to let the weight drop from you, is a wonderful freeing experience, but it takes strength, confidence and faith to expose the soft and vulnerable underbelly of ones self. This sculpture consists of three pieces. The armour stand, made from steel and clay. The breast and back armour, made from stoneware clay, leather and bronze buckles. The horned helmet, made from stoneware clay. The viewer can, to a certain degree arrange and rearrange these elements.
