This bronze by Marke Meyer is created in his trademark style of suspension. The lightness and movement of the piece is mesmerizing as it seems to effortlessly defy gravity.

We asked Marke about the piece:
“The adolescent transcends into adulthood. She leaves behind the childhood influences: the school suitcase and chair, the teacher’s apple and the rocking horse of pre-adolescence. She remains curious.
 
And the Flipper or the Roller Skate? This is about growing up on one’s own terms and searching for that elusive perfect balance of risk and trust, with a dollop of playfulness.”
