Around the sculpture are some chairs and an onlooker who looks curious. It is said that the onlooker is Rudolf Stingel, an artist and a friend of Urs. About the seats that are around the sculpture, the installation had said that they are symbols of contemporary globalization and that they represent the inter-continental trade and commerce in the 19th century.

The candles are lit at the beginning and would last until the wick is there. The melting of the sculptures is incredible to see and you would be able to see them until the 31st of December 2021. Have a look at the sculpture and do leave a comment on what you think about this incredible creation.
