A sympathetic portrait of the Swedish sculptor Sivert Lindblom, one of our time's most engaged sculptors for and of the design of public space. Hearing a young Sivert Lindblom (age 36) reason about his world of thought and view of art is an ear and eye opener that leads us back and forth into his unique language of form and imagery. We get to follow how his early discoveries from a point and then to a line lead us to his originally most famous and iconographic work: Sivert's own Profile rotated 360 degrees.
