Description
This sculpture symbolizes the Anemoi, the gods of the four winds named Boreas, the North Wind, Zephryos (Zephyrus), the West, Notos (Notus), the South, and Euros (Eurus), the East. Each of these was associated with a season of the year. Boreas was the cold breath of winter, Zephyros the god of spring breezes, and Notos the god of summer rain-storms. In the idiosyncratic vision of Thierry Lauwers the Anemoi give the island its shape. The end result was an archaic-looking sculpture as if it had been standing in this place for thousands of years. Eroded, blurry, mysterious just like an idolatry from past times.
