• Balkenhol's sculptures are timeless: they are types, art characters
• Balkenhol uses the classic form of wood sculpting and returns to the primal technique of this genre
• Balkenhol's sculptures seem as if they came into existence in a calm and unpretentious moment, with no emphasized gestures and characterized by strong intentional balance

"First of all, I create my sculptures for myself."
