Skyladder by Franziska Agrawal and Transitionzone Collective from Munich Germany and Denver CO Like a single line drawn across the sky, Skyladder rises in quiet defiance of gravity. Its pared-down form—a sequence of rungs suspended between two impossibly slender rails—embodies the reduction of minimalism, where nothing extraneous interrupts the gesture. Neither anchored by place nor bound by scale, it inhabits the space between sculpture and dream. To climb it is to leave the familiar behind, to feel the ground slip away as the horizon redraws itself with each step. In this act, the work transforms: from structure to symbol, from matter to metaphor. Skyladder speaks of ascent—not merely upward, but inward. It is an emblem of change, a distillation of direction, a vision of the infinite where the top is both destination and beginning. www.transitionzone.org www.franziskaagrawal.com www.subzeroart.com URL: http://www.transitionzone.org/ Contact: franziagrawal@gmail.com https://burningman.org/event/2025-art-listings/#a2IVI0000016yqX2AQ
