"A metaphor of life worked in metal, the sculpture invites you on an introspective journey through the labyrinth of your own being. The past, present, and future blend into a harmonious symbiosis, reflecting life's continuity and the way we construct our own story. The cedar wood base, robust and stable, provides a solid foundation for this personal ascent. Handmade through hundreds of layers of melted steel, SELFSCAPE is a testament to perseverance and dedication. The bronze steps of the sculpture symbolize the experiences that have shaped us, the climbs and descents that have defined us. The sculpture is a mirror of our self, through it, we contemplate our own path, we celebrate our victories and learn from our failures. It is an invitation to introspection, a meditation on the time that has shaped us and the destiny that awaits us. The signature, engraved on the interior of the steel cube, gives a personal and intimate note to the sculpture. It's like a whisper from the depths of the soul, a footprint of creativity and invested emotion."
