Supportive
This pillar is a powerful support. Striking is it s invisibility and it s blending into the surrounding area. What could use this as an example? To what extent do I behave like this; to what extent am I selfless contributive for example, to my partner? I catch myself asking for recognition and expecting also a favor in return.
In what way is my manager supportive and focused on the common result? To what extent are social media supportive in solving problems? To what extent are political parties bent on achieving results on behalf of the voters and willing to give up their own short-term political goals? I myself and others can learn a great deal from Cloud Catcher by Rob Mulholland.

Ondersteunend
Deze zuil is een krachtige ondersteuning. Opvallend is het geheel onzichtbaar is en volledig opgaat in de omgeving. Wat zou hieraan een voorbeeld kunnen nemen? In hoeverre gedrag ik mij zo; in hoeverre ben ik belangeloos ondersteunend, bijvoorbeeld voor mijn partner? Ik betrap mij er vaak op dat ik erkenning vraag en ook een wederdienst verwacht.
In hoeverre is mijn manager ondersteunend en in dienst van het gezamenlijke resultaat? In hoeverre zijn social media een maatschappelijke ondersteuning om conflicten op te lossen? In hoeverre zijn politieke partijen erop uit om resultaten te bereiken ten behoeve van de kiezers en bereid om hun korte termijn politieke doelen op te geven? Ikzelf en ook anderen kunnen veel leren van Cloud Catcher van Rob Mulholland.

His practise explores the complex relationship between humans and the natural world. Utilizing a wide variety of forms and materials his sculpture installations interact with their surroundings. He incorporates mirrored surfaces in his sculptures to reflect the given environment and alter the viewers perception of the space. The reflection is purposely distorted inviting the viewer to question their individual relationship with their surroundings. This nexus between people and the natural world is further developed in recent works such as One Flock which illuminates this symbiotic relationship.

Rob Mulholland is a Scottish sculptor and istallation artist who creates visually stimulating and thought provoking works. His work explores the human relationship with the wider environment with a reflective and questioning approach to the ever-changing world around us.
Skytower, Rob s latest work, refers to the artistic concepts of Constructivism and De-constructivism and also aims to introduce the factors of natural chaos and de-construction. This balance between order and chaos, force and reaction is observed and reflected in the installation.
www. sculptor.org:
He is interested in elements of deconstruction and has interpreted this with sculptures such as Skytower and Evolve in which kinetic forces appear to have torn through and re-shaped the sculptural forms. These sculptures push the boundaries of physical structural engineering allowing him to explore and develop his practise further. His work is both gallery based and sited in public spaces.
The reflecting figures in the forest of Aberfoyle aim to express the artist s feelings regarding ancestry an the theme of lost communities and displacement. Visitors are welcomed to reflect on how much has changed in a relatively short time and to consider and ponder the lives of those who lived and worked on these hillsides in the recent past. These figures ask us to look again and consider the symbiotic relationship we have with our natural and man-made environment. The human desire to leave a trace of ones-self for future generations, the driving force to create and leave a semblance of our-selves as individuals and as a society has always intrigued him. Some of Mulholland s outdoors intallations are made of steel, a material the artist appreciates for its durability and sense of permanence. Mulholland has always been interested in the representation of the human form. The mirrored human figures are a progression of some of his earlier work which dealt with the fragility of human body compared to the strength and essence of the human spirit. The human brain can determine that the reflection is just a reflection, but there is still a slight doubt that it is not truly real, as they create an ambiguity and allow the viewer to create their own interpretation. This notion of non-space is what the artist is interested in and wants to develop further.
