The Gun Sculpture

The sculpture is meant to challenge visitors intellectually and emotionally, not for shock, but into developing insight into the nature of violence. Artists are driven to communicate. With the sculpture we want to communicate the desperate need to change the cycle of violence in which humanity is caught. The weapons are a metaphor for the violence of the most violent century in human history. We don't want visitors to be overwhelmed with what may appear to be hopeless. We are confident that through raising awareness and insight, visitors will also develop hope, that positive change is possible.   The participation of the viewer is an essential part of the sculpture installation.
