This work pays tribute to gymnasts who, similarly to all other professional sportsmen and women, are a symbol of dedication and achievement. For the artist the gymnast is an inspiration to rise to one’s full potential. The figure moves upwards in the same way as other more abstract works in the artist’s Rise Series, creating a reference to prosperity and success over one’s life struggles.
