Contemporary artist Gabor Miklos Szoke built an enormous stainless steel sculpture of an eagle for Ferencvárosi Torna Club, a famous Hungarian football club. The sculpture, which currently holds the title as the largest bird monument in Europe, took over seven months to build with the work of over 100 people. The artist notes how size and material are considered in his work to evoke the desired response of the observer.
My work strives to trigger a reaction in the spectator. Monumentality lends itself to this purpose and wood and metal are appropriate for these sizes.
