The work of a sculptor has always seemed to me extremely fascinating. Think for a moment: you have in front of you a block of marble and you begin to carve with a chisel. Little by little, from the stone a « form » begins to appear, the stone begins to have a « meaning », and this form and meaning represent the materialization of an idea that was in your mind as well as the manifestation in the physical plane of your creative power. It’s something that makes us similar to the gods.
This process can appear trivial, but there are some aspects that deserve to be explored: the block of marble is a space of infinite potentiality, it contains an infinite number of statues of which only one will materialize. It is interesting to note that to sculpt a statue is a process that does not involve a real « creation », as the statue is ALREADY inside the stone, but it implies the elimination of all that is unnecessary and prevents the statue to come to light and to manifest.
“How would our world be, if each of us used their talents and their ability to make a contribution?”
