PHOENIX

In Phoenix, the inspiration of the ancestral bird is exposed in the use of various visual references: the bright, strong colors, between the shades of red and yellow, gold and black; the Portuguese found ceramics which acquire a new meaning; and the lotus flower, a plant that possesses mystical attributes and is renewed daily at the first rays of dawn, after a period of seclusion and closure. In this process, life is exalted through life, hope through the reuse of materials and processes that were, like the phoenix, with a destiny mapped out. As if the end were the beginning of a new cycle, where the first rays of the morning bring renewed hope for a new journey made of unpredictability, but, simultaneously, of enthusiasm.

This sculpture is weather-resistant and designed to be placed in an open space, nestled in grass or in a reflecting pool, such as a lotus flower to create a greater unity between the elements and the references that serve as its basis, in praise of the natural, the beautiful and the hope!

Phoenix becomes a sanctuary, an installation to reflect and rejuvenate amidst the harmonious blend of natural elements and human creativity. It’s about crafting environments that resonate with emotions and memories.
