Democracy has a lasting impact on society, not only in politics but also in culture and the economy. The column, as a symbol of stability and durability, represents democratic values that withstand time and turbulent events. This particular piece is sculpted from remnants of the statue of Klement Gottwald, adding another layer of meaning to the work. By repurposing material from a monument that once embodied a different ideological framework, the sculpture reflects the transformation of historical narratives and the endurance of democratic ideals over time.

Material: travertine
