Bertil Vallien
Gatekeeper
Bertil Vallien
Bertil Vallien is devoted and consistent . His objects develop over time , and he is always looking to extract more from his works . Gatekeeper is a case in point . Previous executions range from charcoal drawings to glass and metal objects .
In the summer of 2021 , large-format adaptations were exhibited in the famous park of the Royal Palace “ Solliden ”, Öland , providing a magnificent spectacle for the large audience . These two impressive Gatekeeper figures – standing at almost half a meter and fixed by thin wires – give an impression of drifting . A trademark Vallien face rests inside the shimmering blue vessel . This peaceful and mythical sculpture just might evoke references to ancient and Egyptian burial rituals .
Gatekeeper is produced in a signed edition of 60 .
