Well, I don't really like explaining what I do. On the contrary, I’m enthusiastic about hiding meanings in my pieces. However, I get frustrated when I can't find a description of a work that I really like, so here is a brief description.
The character is the human representation. I didn’t want to make a very physical representation because I wanted to appeal more to our spirit, to the breath of life experiencing materiality. But I did want to put more emphasis on the feet, which keep us standing. They are the support of our body, the bridge connecting us with The Earth.
Behind the character's right hand is an eclipse, which is strongly related to items 1 and 6. We must take advantage of our periods of light; to do so, we must first notice them, be present, and thank life with a good attitude. When we have moments of darkness, we must also embrace those feelings, but keep in mind that it’s only a transition. Someone once said that we shouldn’t shadow ourselves for more than five minutes. I have tried hard to find who it was, but I am still searching.
The character holds a bunch of magnolias in their right hand, symbolizing a calm and poetic view of life, which is where I am aiming personally.
On the left side, there is a dandelion, symbolizing the ephemeral nature of life, the importance of appreciating the moment, but at the same time, letting go and accepting what comes. It represents an act of becoming aware, but also surrendering.
The hula hoop represents the amount of tasks, activities, tensions, or indecisions that we can have at this stage of life, however, the character remains upright, maintaining -or trying to maintain- control.
Finally, in a general view of the composition, the character acts as a stem connecting the materiality of life with the light that it receives and transforms into creation.
