Misbaksel

This image, "Misbaksel", by De Keyzer, however, differs from other works from his oeuvre. As far as is known, the work is the only one with imperfections; it almost doesn't seem to be finished. Typical of the "Misbaksel" is that the image is not nicely finished. For example, the figure lacks a hand, but the other fingers and toes are also shown roughly. Because of her striking facial expression, the female figure is still very recognizable for De Keyzer's style. The narrow face, the closed eyes, full lips, broad strands of hair and the clear structure of the nose and eyebrows are similar to other images of De Keyzer. This statue tells a unique story about a failed relationship: Dirk de Keyzer gave this statue to someone who had had a "failed relationship". Typically because this image is also partly "failed" of course. When this woman wanted to leave her failed relationship behind, she also symbolically sold the statue again to leave the failed relationship behind so that it is now back on the market.
