This is a rough idea of what Marco told me on the phone about the base of the piece. The idea is that if the i-beam steel is big enough and heavy enough, it could work as the stand for such a large piece, even if it was placed on the surface of the playa.
But the base will be buried, so that the right foot of the piece seems to stand on the surface of the desert. And, with the base buried, it will be even more stable.
Speaking of stability, it would help if the legs touched where they cross, but they don't . That would firm up the lower section, adding another stabilizing triangle, behind the left knee. The fact that the legs don't touch will increase the structural challenge, because Marco knows- and accepts the fact- that people will want to sit on the left ankle and leg.
UPDATE- July 2, 2010.
There is now a special section on the heavy parts of the design in the BD 03 set:, called "Right leg":

The modern materials, and Marco's airy design, make the amazing, one-leg stance of the figure possible.
Solving problems of stability is the age-old challenge of the sculptor. See an example from the past on the next page.
In 2012 alone, nighty eight (98) income-generation activities were supported by DCPSF that included different groups, such as women, youth and various tribes. A total of 92 percent of sampled community members responded that trust and confidence was restored in the communities where the DCPSF projects were operating. Over 80 percent of sampled Darfuris responded that they are satisfied with reconciliation mechanisms, experiencing increased levels of peace and stability. Despite of the increasing overall intensity of conflicts and security incidents in 2012, sample survey and reports from 21 ongoing projects, 2012 indicates that the communities with the DCPSF strengthened their resilience to conflicts and enjoyed peace and stability where activities promoting early recovery could take place. More than 146,500 people have used the community-based conflict resolution mechanisms benefited directly and some 2,425,620 people benefitted indirectly in which the efforts spread to some 160 communities in 2012. DCPSF has supported 61 educational and 7 health initiatives. Forty-five (45) civil society organizations (CSOs) improved planning, conflict sensitivity and peace building activities. Through DCPSF, 25,302 children were newly enrolled in schools in Darfur and 109 water sources including boreholes, hand pumps, wells, and hafirs through consultative processes.
Despite of tough security situation and access, DCPSF has gone beyond the defined milestones by achieving 14 out of 17 milestones defined for 2012. It requires a continuation of funds for the period of time to brought back the communities to pre-conflict situation as a significant amount of anchoring are still in an intensive care. UNDP through DCPSF and its implementing partners backed by the donors, assures to set new goals, standards and achievements in the year 2014 and will ensure accountability of each penny spend from contribution of the donating countries.

This symbol represents stability, and also the backbone of Osiris. It has a bit of a double meaning here, as it's literally holding up the burial chamber.
Nefertari was the Great Royal Wife of King Ramses II. Her tomb is called the "Sistine Chapel of Ancient Egypt," and contains some of the most vibrant paintings in the entire country.
The paintings are on plaster, and are extremely delicate. At least 20 percent of them are gone forever. The tomb was completely closed to the public in 1950, as humidity from the breath and sweat of visitors threatened what remained.
The Getty Institute undertook a large preservation and restoration of the tomb, from 1988-1992. It now has its own air filtration system, but the number of visitors is still highly restrictive and requires a rather expensive ticket.

After years of political stability and economic progress, Turkey is sliding backwards in reforms and in abiding to democratic principles and the rule of law.
A serious clampdown on media and individual freedoms has started and is likely to continue beyond the general elections in June 2015.
Journalists have been arrested and the authorities are cutting back the freedom of expression and media in Turkey.
As a reaction, a recent resolution by the European Parliament reminded Turkey that a free and pluralistic press is an essential component of any democracy.
Guy Verhofstadt, President of ALDE, and Rebecca Harms, President of Greens/EFA, have invited a number of key Turkish journalists from the major media corporations to address the issue of media freedom in Turkey and the role that the EU could play in that field.
