Lifting off, flying free…finding an expression of liberation, joy and independence. This is the essence of “Becoming Light.” In this sculpture, I depict that ecstatic moment that each of us has from time to time -- when desire and thought to become light and unburdened gravity joins the notion of the phenomenon of light (la luz).
The sculpture is painted reflected sun yellow-gold on the upper sides (wings, head and body) and blue to reflect the sea on the undersides of the wings. The wings undulate lightly in the wind.
