About this artwork
A unique, self-standing bronze masterpiece that captures the essence of a moving flock. 'Silent Migration' is hand-sculpted and cast using the traditional lost-wax method, resulting in a dense, monolithic form that invites touch and contemplation.
The composition features a leading sheep emerging from the top of the 'bronze nugget,' while other members of the flock appear as subtle, relief-like forms across the sides, suggesting a slow, collective… journey. The sophisticated dark patina enhances the anatomy of shadows, making the sculpture’s details shift and reveal themselves as the ambient light changes. This piece is a meditation on unity, safety, and the poetic motion of life in its most elemental, bronze form.

Nerijus Kisielius, a master sculptor rooted in the Lithuanian classical tradition, harnesses bronze, wood, felt, and paint to bridge ancient techniques and contemporary stillness. His process revolves around lost-wax casting, where he transitions soft, hand-sculpted wax into enduring bronze forms—each piece embracing tactile textures and the narrative interplay of figure and shadow. Through highly symbolic sheep motifs and abstracted objects, his art radiates vulnerability, communal warmth, and a serene pastoral quiet, inviting the viewer to share in a sense of timelessness and the profound silence of fleeting moments made eternal.
