In Resting Wave, Roland Berger transforms a rigid material into the illusion of movement. The white marble unfolds in a fluid gesture, as if shaped by water itself—gently undulating, veined, perfectly smooth. The sculpture evokes a receding ocean wave—a fleeting moment between motion and stillness.
Its deliberately low, expansive form rejects any heroic posture. Instead, it appears contemplative and restrained, almost meditative. The solidity of the marble contrasts with the soft, organic lines—playing between fluid and solid, between natural flow and crafted control.
Like many of Berger’s works, Resting Wave oscillates between natural form and artistic abstraction. It resists fixed interpretation and instead gestures toward something fundamental: the stone’s ability to hold movement, and art’s ability to make a moment of stillness felt.
