Description
Ups and Downs is a playful yet insightful sculpture featuring the bull and bear balanced on a seesaw, their iconic rivalry transformed into a moment of shared motion. Instead of clashing, the two figures ride the rise and fall together, symbolizing the natural fluctuations that shape markets, fortunes, and life itself. The seesaw becomes a metaphor for cycles—reminding viewers that highs and lows are inevitable, interconnected, and often temporary. By placing the bull and bear on the same plank, the artwork highlights interdependence rather than opposition: each movement of one affects the other, creating a dynamic equilibrium. Ups and Downs invites us to approach uncertainty with perspective and even a touch of humor, recognizing that stability comes not from eliminating change but from learning to ride it with resilience, balance, and awareness.
