This ceramic sculpture portrays a young girl in an orange fox-like garment, her expression solemn yet open, her posture quietly reverent. One hand rests over her heart while the other touches her stomach, a gesture that suggests both emotional sincerity and the nurturing of inner life. Her upward gaze carries the intensity of listening beyond herself, as though attuned to something unseen. The fox-hood and dark ears add a subtle, dreamlike edge, hinting at the thresholds between innocence and transformation.
The Listening Heart becomes an allegory of receptivity and introspection. It is a reminder of how we safeguard dreams and remain attentive to the deeper voices within.
