RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The territory have changed its functionality. The tower is the highest object surrounded by a scenic lake and a pine forest. New function of the territory gave a hint for new ways of using the tower: upon completion of the studies, you can climb to the observation point for a ceremony. Outer surface of the tower required some facelifting. The structures attractivity gave the idea of creating an art object with the reflection of the meaning of its new function. Protruding balconies can be transformed into part of climbing equipment thus creating a full-scale climbing wall.
CHALLENGE: Complicated cylindric shape of the tower created most difficulties for development of composition and layout. It was necessary to find comprehensible images and create an integral plot to reflect the new function of the tower and Workshops territory en masse. The gradient of the staircase spiral shows movement from the ground to the sky, movement of a character from bottom to the top, growing up and achievement of the highest point. The characters are slightly deformed circularly for the proportions to be natural when viewed from ground level.

This work is a wonderful representation of the journey of life. The idea to use a younger climber in the lower part of the tower and have them grow more mature as they ascend is a powerful metaphor that captures the process of accumulating knowledge and wisdom. The winding steps of the tower are like a staircase to enlightenment, leading the climber up to a higher level of understanding. The work is truly inspiring and visually captivating. Congratulations to the artist behind this meaningful and beautiful piece of art!
