In comparison to other works in the Freight series, Elephant has a very anecdotal approach.
Inspired by the brutal and imposing straddle carriers found in Belgium’s harbour ports, Elephant - their nickname in the port of Antwerp - is a bestial and futuristic interpretation of these impressive machines.
This sculpture is modelled by hand and cast in high-tech acrylics.
