About this artwork
In LA CREACIÓN DEL MUNDO I aimed to portray the essence of a child’s innocence and wonder as they create and shape their world. A young girl stands on a textured globe, fragile yet strong, embodying the limitless possibilities of imagination. She holds a giant sunflower, which symbolizes creation, growth, and the beauty of life in its purest form.Children possess an extraordinary faith in their abilities, untainted by doubt or fear. They marvel at…
simple things—a flower, a breeze, or the earth beneath their feet—turning these moments into magical adventures. In this sculpture, the sunflower becomes her tool of creation, her connection to the universe and its mysteries.This piece reminds us that within every adult lies the bravery and wonder of childhood, often overshadowed but never entirely lost.
This piece belongs to the collection "CHILDREN AND THEIR IMAGINARY FRIENDS", a series celebrating the boundless spirit of childhood, its monsters, and its magic.

« The stories of each character, isolated in an intimate and personal dimension, are reflections on human values, perceptions and emotions. »
Francesca Dalla Benetta is an Italian sculptor based in Mexico. After 10 years working as a makeup artist in the film industry, Dalla Benetta is now a dedicated full-time artist. Her work is characterized by anatomies and mixed forms. Faces and human bodies are combined with different textures, skins and elements, giving rise to hybrid and fantastic beings. Through unusual, strange and surreal bodies, her pieces focus on the problems of transformation, identity, the sense of belonging, self-perception and dreams.
