The monument

The head is made of stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish, and a huge number of wires and other electrical equipment that drives the transformation mechanism. The monument, as conceived at the very beginning, is really in a state of permanent work, and only under adverse weather conditions, snowfall or severe frost, is it hidden under a special "wrapper".

The height of the sculpture is 10 m, and it weighs more than 45 tons. Actually, the head is made up of 42 discs that can rotate in different directions. The weight of these disks is 38 tons, everything else is for electrical equipment, in particular, for electrical wires with a total length of more than 1 km. The discs installed in the original, preset position form a portrait of Franz Kafka in three-dimensional space.
