3° Simposio Internazionale di Scultura su pietre del Friuli Venezia Giulia
Pietra Piasentina
Intense nuances envelop this artwork. One can feel the deep beats of the heart of the sculpted subject, the heavy anticipation before the leap, the attempt that makes them quiver, the lost desire to merge with those who already know how to fly.
The immense gaze embraces the void: a new human conquest for this descendant of Icarus.The hands and feet are fused with the base, as if sealing the impossibility for humans to soar through the air. While the crow gazes into the infinite space, the man wavers in anticipation. Trying to concentrate, the wind pulls him in, part of his being is already ready to fly, while another part remains firmly anchored to the base.
