“A small, delicate petal is made into a giant metal sculpture. The desire to be preserved and not withered forever is expressed in the work. The first way to make it is to cut and mold the wire mesh. Next, you put a plaster bandage on the surface and create a sense of volume. The moments when you attach flesh to the bones of dry petals resemble the process of touching and bandaging a painful wound to heal it. And then, again, we make castings out of metal or plastic industrial materials, and we color them very evenly with urethane paint. Finally, bake at high temperature for gloss and firmness of the surface. The solid sculpture shows a glossy sense of material, a fluctuating form, a flexible and beautiful curve. It awakens the existence of inadequate human beings living in Mother Nature. The sculpture, which has independent shapes and colors and proudly hangs on the wall, recognizes its creator and celebrates our precious moments.”
