It is the area around Lars Vilk's Nimis work that the proposed ban formally applies. If the proposal is adopted, then it will be prohibited to enter the sculpture, which Helsingborgs Dagblad was the first to report.

- The proposed ban on trespass applies where the risks are considered extraordinarily large. It is not safe to stay in Nimis, says Helena Holmgren on the county administrative board.

"Odd"

Lars Vilks tells SVT News that he does not agree with the risks.
- Nothing is definite yet. But it is strange. There is a lot to keep in mind for those who are into the sculpture, says Lars Vilks.

Can't you understand that the county administrative board requires a lot of a building that people should stay in?

- Yes, of course. But no one has hurt Nimis in 36 years. The accidents have happened when people have slipped on the rocks on the beach.

Lars Vilks believes that people will get up in Nimis even if there is a ban, he asks who is responsible then. When he cannot repair and build on the sculpture himself.

- It risks becoming a complicated legal history, says Lars Vilks.

Want to make comments

Lars Vilks says he has contacted his lawyer.

- I want to express my views if possible, he says.

Helena Holmgren, County Administrative Board, again:

- This is our assessment. Lars Vilks is welcome to submit his comments so we can take it from there.
