Isabel Miramontes gives each of her sculptures a soul of his own. Each figure carries within it a message delivered by a movement, a posture, an expression. To achieve this near perfection, Isabel Miramontes shapes the material, lightens it, softens it, bares it, works the curves until reaching this subtle and powerful balance.Provenance
This sculpture represents the ambiguity of the man who wants to reach the end of the world: he stretches out… to reach it with this feeling of going beyond himself; and at the same time it turns in on itself, and the body bends in the face of this disproportionate ambition.Expositions
