Artwork description:

This bronze sculpture captures a moment of profound stillness and quiet encounter. A horse, rendered with solidity and calm, lowers its head in a gesture of deep contemplation. Upon its powerful form rests a cluster of delicate petals – a fleeting gift of nature, seemingly paused in time.

The work explores the intersection of the enduring and the ephemeral. The bronze horse embodies strength, memory, and the passage of time. The petals represent life's transient beauty, chance encounters, and moments of grace that shimmer briefly before vanishing. Their unlikely meeting on the horse’s back becomes a powerful visual metaphor.

It invites the viewer to contemplate: In the relentless flow of our fast-paced world, do we pause to recognize these moments of unexpected connection? Can we find stillness within ourselves to truly ‘see’ – perhaps to reconnect with a forgotten aspect of ourselves, a cherished memory, a lost ideal, or the simple wonder of the present? The sculpture serves as a timeless vessel, holding a question about presence, memory, and the preciousness of the ‘now’.

Materials used:

bronze horse、Wooden Plinth、Cast Resin Florals
