Affirmation of Gravity – Anton Smit

Affirmation of Gravity is a thought-provoking, monumental sculpture that encapsulates the dual concepts of physical force and the weighty burdens of human existence. In this work, Smit employs robust materials and textured surfaces to create a dynamic form that appears to wrestle with the irresistible pull of gravity—both in its literal, scientific sense and as a metaphor for life’s inescapable challenges. The piece’s interplay of tension and balance reflects how natural laws and human struggles are interwoven, inviting viewers to reflect on the gravity that grounds our world and shapes our inner lives.
