The geometric composition features two interlocking rectangular volumes, showcasing a meticulous balance of open and solid spaces. The cool, industrial aesthetic of the untreated steel surfaces highlights natural patina and subtle variations in texture, adding an organic quality to the precise form.The juxtaposition of mass and void creates a dynamic tension, inviting viewers to explore the interplay of light and shadow as they move around the piece. Reminiscent of modernist principles and the sculptural language of artists like Donald Judd and Tony Smith, the work reflects a deep appreciation for materiality and simplicity.Van Dijk's craftsmanship underscores his background in industrial design, while the clean lines and modular nature recall the structural clarity of Dutch design traditions. This sculpture is both a tribute to and a progression of the minimalist ethos, serving as a timeless study of form and space. This piece has an attribution mark,
