About this artwork
Standing 3.22 m tall and spanning 5 × 2 m when installed, this monumental work suspends a divine black figure upside down — not to touch, but to transform. Beneath, a feminine silhouette made of 35 kg of shattered glass symbolizes the fragmented inner self shaped by emotional and social weight.
The divine presence does not act through physical contact; it hovers above, carrying silent power. The suspended gesture becomes a bridge between suffering… and reconstruction, revealing how faith often operates in the invisible space between fall and rebirth.
The work unfolds like a contemporary altar — a place of stillness, light, and inner listening — inviting viewers to slow down, sense the unseen, and rediscover the sacred within themselves.

« With my art, I seek to bring some inner discomfort, a feeling, something that the person sees and feels that has something else within. »
