A striking gold-leafed sculpture stands on a white pedestal, appearing to melt and deteriorate. The figure is bent forward in a posture suggesting defeat or exhaustion. The surface treatment creates a dramatic contrast between smooth, reflective areas and rough, fragmented sections where the gold appears to be dripping or peeling away. At the base of the sculpture, a pool of black material spreads across the pedestal, suggesting decay or dissolution. The figure's form is simultaneously solid and dissolving, with elongated drips of gold material stretching downward, creating a sense of movement and transformation. The sculpture's placement in the gallery space, set against neutral walls, emphasizes its dramatic golden surface and the contrast with the dark matter at its base. The title's themes of majesty and guilt are reflected in the use of precious gold material that appears to be failing or decomposing before our eyes.
