Tarzan

“Often he had spoken to Goro, the moon, and Kudu, the sun … but to his disappointment, they never answered.”
Tarzan «the self dies not when the body is slain» Artists: Thomas Østbye and Janne Hoem Material: Epoxy Fiberglas - Glass and organic materials. Measures: 200x150cm

Life size epoxy sculpture made by Thomas Østbye. Suspended from the roof (2 x 1 x 1,5 m), ecosphere and daylight bulb - made in collaboration with Janne Hoem.

Sculpture modelled after "climate-lawyer" Vikram Kollmannskog, the dying Tarzan is almost hitting the ground, thou still clinging to the liana, while with the other hand holding a glass sphere with a hermetically closed ecosystem within.
