Ultima Isla

Highlight • Monument

The statue is by the artist Philip Aguirre y Otegui and stands on an island in the moat around the castle of the Dukes of Brabant. The image was created for the exhibition 'Tweespoort' (2012). The sculpture represents a floating cloud or rock, topped with a house and a tree, archetypal elements that invite the viewer to a personal poetic reflection.
