About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
Striking a balance between whimsy and wonder, “Elevated” by Henk Jan Sanderman captures the defiant grace of a young goat poised atop a jagged stone, as if nature had gifted it a pedestal. The tactile realism of the animal's textured coat contrasts with the smooth, geometric form beneath its feet, creating a dialogue between wild instinct and sculpted intent. With its downturned gaze and determined stance, the figure radiates both vulnerability and quiet triumph.
The composition seems to transcend gravity, inviting viewers to contemplate themes of persistence and elevation—both literal and metaphorical. Sanderman’s mastery in creating dimensional illusion blurs the boundary between painting and sculpture, as the goat appears to step forward from the canvas. This clever play with depth heightens the sense of immediacy, making the scene feel uncannily present.
“Elevated” is more than a study in animal form—it is a gentle yet powerful homage to the will to rise. It distills resilience into visual poetry, crafted with both playfulness and reverence.

Reebok Roebuck Animal Nature Modern Bronze Sculpture Contemporary In Stock
The statues of Erwin Meijer are subtle with a recognizable, personal handwriting.
They breathe the atmosphere of a narrative poem, where the reader not only encounters the artist, but also himself.
Though the statues are realistic, there is still enough room for interpretation. Do the artist and the viewer see the same story? It doesn’t really matter, because the beauty in his work has a autonome quality. How can we interprete the work in the conscious and unconscious brain?
The first will be hit by the clear styled forms and the technical know-how. The second by his favourite theme, nature, the loving images of men and animals, often together in harmony.
Very common in his work is the symbolic worth within the story. The viewer experiences an emotion, seeing a human or human presence, funny or vulnerable. You sympathize with the myth and feel the power of the methaphorical meaning. This is confirms we are dealing with a real artist.
Erwin Meijer managed very well to give his sculptures a classic universality, timeless, surpassing the boundaries of reality. With a signature beyond countries and cultures. . East and west meet each other in many sculptures, like Europe and the bull...
