This wall sculpture explores the different paths we take through life’s journey. Using metal elements, I’ve created a visual dialogue between two contrasting approaches: a zigzagging line representing the winding, exploratory route and a direct line with a parallel ladder symbolizing straightforward progression.
Two movable characters inhabit this symbolic landscape. One figure, creative in appearance yet structurally aligned, can only navigate the zigzag path. The other, hanging playfully by one arm in an adventurous pose, is restricted to the straight line and ladder.
Though these characters travel differently—one meandering through creative exploration, the other taking direct risks—they ultimately move between the same points. This represents life’s paradox: there is no single correct way to journey from beginning to end. Some of us zigzag through experiences, while others climb directly toward goals, yet we all progress through life in our authentic way.
The title is borrowed from a well-known French reggae song by Tonton David.
