Kastellet Girl

‘A solid cast iron sculpture of a young girl bolted upside down onto of the bridge at the heart of the Kastellet School. The concept is to provide a witness to the main stream of life through the school, both a marker in space and a measure of age and height of the living bodies that it interacts with. The work will have an untreated surface; a dynamic response to diferent human and atmospheric conditions. The idea is to use the sculpture as a signifcant reference point for the life of the school, constantly playing truant but also constantly there for everyone’
(Antony Gormley on The Kastellet School Commission, Oslo, Norway, 2004).
