Sculpture 11
Listen to the description (English):
Becoming a child again means rediscovering clear and pure eyes, capable of marveling even at the smallest things: trees in bloom, a stormy sea, the flight of a bird. Life's experiences, with their filters, prejudices, and habits, often prevent us from perceiving the beauty that surrounds us. Yet the child we once were, remains hidden within us. The artist invites us to an act of courage: to let that child emerge, to recover a gaze capable of wonder and a heart ready to savor beauty once again.
The sculpture depicts a child contemplating nature in wonder. The sinuous trunk of a tree, imposing yet gracefully sculpted, welcomes animal life—birds, foxes, small forest dwellers—and becomes a symbol of the perfect harmony between strength and delicacy.
The work invites us to reflect on childhood curiosity, the innocence of the gaze, and the profound bond between human beings and nature. It encourages visitors to reconnect with their inner child, that part of themselves that continues to marvel at the mystery and beauty of the natural world, and to rediscover the simple joy of living in harmony with everything around us.
