An intricate sculpture created as an independent integration project within the Cirkusslottet festival in Finspång, 2019.

Balansera på luft (Balancing on air) was developed in collaboration with local youth and newly arrived young people from Afghanistan, under the guidance of the artist. Together, they built a sculpture capturing the essence of the circus experience.

The piece, a figure of a performer balancing atop the roof of Kulturhuset in Finspång, is designed to appear semi-transparent, like an afterimage or memory, symbolizing the fleeting moment when magic is created.

Constructed from coarse, widely spaced stainless steel wire, the sculpture is visually permeable. At night, it is subtly illuminated to maintain its ethereal presence.

Standing approximately 3 meters tall, the sculpture is accompanied by a small tactile version, only 30 centimeters high, installed at ground level, allowing visually impaired visitors and others to experience the piece through touch.
