This sculpture combines the female form with the wings and rudder of an aircraft, poised for take-off. However, in spite of her position and eager smile, her stumpy silver wings bring into question if she could ever really fly. The title of the work also implies a fleeing from responsibility, an activity which often results in disappointment or failure. Her eerie expression and corroded face speaks to a painful state of mind and is rather uncomfortable to look at, speaking volumes about the feeling Blom wished to express with this piece.
