KDH went to check out The Balancing Sculptures by Jotka: an installation on display now at Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi. The sculptures amuse and attract, but above all…..they balance!

Suspended between horizontal and vertical lines, they blend in with the desert backdrop between the giant palms through the maintenance of equilibrium. The secret of the Balancing Sculptures is that “the gravity lies below the fulcrum, which makes it impossible for a sculpture to capsize. An interesting combination- wobbling with stability- a challenge of the laws of physics.”

The sculptures are like circus actors and gently move inn the wind leaving viewers apprehensively watching from below to see if they will fall…but they don’t!

Jotka says, “I think I am an inventor, a slave of the idea which I have to realize.” Jerzy “Jokka” Kedziora was born in 1947 in Poland. He exhibits his versatility through a range of fine art including: drawing, painting, ceramics, medal art and spatial composition and says that “Balance is the fourth dimension of the universe.”

Hey Jotka, how bout bringing a sculpture show in the Hamptons this summer?
