HERE AFTER HERE AFTER HERE, PERMANENT SCULPTURE IN LOWER AUSTRIA
AUSTRIA
Installed in a large roundabout on an expressway at Stockerau, north of Vienna, Here After Here After Here (2012-2015) takes the form of a mammoth loop made of extended highway signage that seems to continue infinitely and coil within. Kallat draws together a confluence of myriad references to arrive at this compelling form, amongst them the mythic symbol of ouroboros, ancient eternal knots, alchemical diagrams and sacred geometry.
