Swedish artist Roland Persson’s sculptures exist in a constant limbo between the living and the dead. An intensely vivid realism in a state of ongoing decay, making it difficult for the viewer to understand what they are actually seeing. For the exhibition *Rite of Passage*, Roland has installed the two works “The Watching Girl” and “The Sleeping Boy,” which are modeled after the artist’s own daughter and son.

Title: The Watching Girl
Year: 2015
