The composition balances softness and structure, creating a quiet yet powerful presence.

the form unfolds through smooth, flowing curves that suggest the reclining body without relying on literal detail. The head, torso and legs are distilled into rounded planes and subtle transitions, allowing the sculpture to move between figuration and abstraction. This reduction of form recalls the modern sculptural tradition in which the human body becomes a landscape of shapes and rhythm.

cast in bronze, the surface carries a deep, muted patina that enhances the tactile quality of the piece. Light moves gently across the curved planes, emphasizing the continuity of the form and the careful balance between mass and void.

the result is a sculpture that combines intimacy with formal clarity a contemplative work where the human figure becomes a study in proportion, movement and sculptural harmony.
