Premio Combat Prize

Not much can be said when a society is unexpectedly attacked. The recent sculpture ’After the attack’ is directly referring to the terrorist aggression in March 2016 in Brussels, but the work relates to every gross beheading of bombed places anywhere in the world. The architectural shape in which the head is presented suggests protection, though the overwhelmed human has the threat unknowingly hanging over him.
