the sheaf of wheat, is for thousands of years known as the symbol of nutrition, fertility and health as well as an emblem for towns, it decorates creatively the entrance of a bakery in winterthur. the hand made piece made of solid steel smoldes into the architechtue of the old town and fits in naturally. through the really clever artificial connection, the sculpture is really flexible, it can move with the wind, but always returns to its original position.
