Skulptura Znak Svetozara Mirkova, iako velikih dimenzija, zadržava izvesnu dozu intimizma koji odlikuje dela ovog umetnika. Kombinujući tri jednostavna geometrijska oblika, umetnik stvara delo koje zaista označava prostor na kome se nalazi. Očigledno inspirisan obeliscima, visokim monolitnim stubovima sa piramidalnim vrhom, kao delima kojima se označavala moć vlasti, umetnik preseca vrh, okrećući ga nadole i stavljajući ga u spiralni okvir. Piramidalna oštrica, koja je kao simbol moći na obeliscima parala nebo, sada je usmerana ka unutra, što samo po sebi nosi i prošireno simboličko značenje.

The sculpture The Sign by Svetozar Mirkov, although large in size, retains a certain amount of intimacy that is characteristic to this artist’s works. Combining three simple geometric shapes, the artist creates a piece of work that truly signifies the space which it is located in. Apparently inspired by obelisks, high monolithic pillars with a pyramidal top as works that represented the power of authority, the artist cuts the top turning it downwards and placing it in a spiral frame. The pyramidal blade which tore the sky as a symbol of power on the obelisks is now directed inwards, which in itself conveys an expanded symbolic meaning.
