Brickasso® No. 14
A horse portrait that preserves a private world.
Kosmos is Brickasso® No. 14, a one of one sculptural artwork completed in 2026. Built from 19,826 original LEGO® elements and measuring 120 × 100 cm, the work combines portrait, sculptural depth and a deeply personal narrative.
From a distance, the viewer sees the portrait of Kosmos. Up close, the surface reveals miniature scenes drawn from the rider's personal world. Memories, places, passions and defining moments are embedded into the composition, allowing the artwork to tell two stories at once.
The portrait is the first layer. The hidden scenes form the second, transforming the work into a visual archive of the relationship between Kosmos and his rider. BRK-14 is now held in a Private Collection.
Story
Not only a horse, but a relationship.
Kosmos was built around the relationship between horse and rider. The portrait gives the artwork its first image, but the hidden scenes give it its emotional structure.
Albert treated memory as part of the material of the work. Meaningful places, personal passions and private moments were woven into the composition, creating a portrait that belongs to a life, not only to an animal.
Hidden Narrative
A private biography inside the portrait.
Miniature scenes based on real memories from the rider's life are integrated into the artwork as small chapters connected to Kosmos, personal passions, places and defining moments.
The public first sees a horse portrait. Those connected to the story discover a visual archive in which individual details preserve a specific memory and give the surface a second narrative.
Artistic Significance
The fourteenth chapter in the Brickasso® chronology.
BRK-14 continues the horse theme present in earlier Brickasso® works while moving it toward biography, memory and personal visual documentation. Kosmos combines sculptural portraiture with hidden narrative to preserve a private relationship inside a single one of one artwork.
