This work - described in a Haiku - depicts a portrait of Herman Van Rompuy, the first so-called “President of Europe”. His calm steadiness is a recipe for peace. Together with his colleagues, he was awarded the 2012 Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of the EU.
His call is equally calm: “One must live in harmony with oneself and in solidarity with others, find the ability to simply be satisfied again.”
