Media: Sculpture. Flexible copper pipe, copper wire & 24 ostrich egg shells.
When I was a child I remember visiting my great-grandmother and my grandmother and whenever I arrived at their house, the visual highlight was the dining room table with a curved wall and stained glass windows. In that cozy architectural space there was a wooden table with six chairs and on the table there was a basket of eggs that I, when I was 3 years old, I remember it was enormous.
The idea of making this sculpture comes from my childhood memories and all the possibilities of learning, playing, loving and meeting with siblings and cousins What I saw in each of the eggs that were in the basket? Opportunities that we take one by one or many to achieve our dreams. The good thing is that we always fill it up again with eggs, or rather, with new opportunities and dreams.
