Isabel Miramontes remembers a bronze sculpture facing the sea in Asturia, a region close to her native Galicia. Her story had upset her. The work represents a woman in a hatchback, with drawn features, stretching her arm out to sea. It is a mother who sees her son leave for America. She leaves her child free to go and build his future, full of hope. This memory inspired Promesse, a sculpture whose body soars with confidence and strength.

This one made her a promise to be always there when he is back, and leaving her loved child free to go and build his future, full of hope.
