Power from Above

Another day in the office, after my first meeting I took the car for tyres. While they were being fitted I had a walk across to Astra Zenica where they have a couple of very dramatic bits of art. 

'Dunamis, which means “power from above”, can be found at Academy House, 136 Hills Road, and features a man holding up an elephant. “It symbolises the human struggle to achieve excellence, pushing boundaries to make the impossible possible. We need to prioritise, work positively and relentlessly towards reaching our goals and dreams,” explains Bushra.
“Holding the elephant in a high position pays homage to the traits that we share and gradually forget, such as family ties, solidarity, compassion and co-operation.” The figure’s ‘pointy hat’ represents knowledge through the ages.'
