Cubes – art on the riverbank

You should take a closer look at this. The longer you look, the more you see.

Luc De Man's sculpture "Cubes" symbolizes in a simple way the dialogue between human activity and creativity on the one hand, and the power of nature on the other. The starting point for the design of the Cubes sculpture is the tension between nature and culture: on the one hand, nature unfolding unhindered, and on the other, what is created by humans. When these two elements are combined, they find a new balance and form a new whole.Artist Luc De Man deliberately chose cubes. They are very rare in nature and can therefore be considered markers of human activity.The cubes are partially sunken into the ground, emphasizing the intense contact between the artwork and the earth. Furthermore, some of the cubes are covered with a transparent material, allowing the natural environment to remain visible through the sculpture and thus become a part of it. In this way, nature and sculpture merge into one new whole.Source: toerismedendermonde.be/product/673/cubes
