Details
All is full of love is conceived as a functional sculpture and is named after a song by Björk in which she calls on the listener to trust that love is everywhere and in everything, even though it may not be directly requited. Like twins, the two figures in the work embrace, caught in a moment of affection, they encourage the public to do the same and to embrace not only the human, but all living beings.
