Technique : Sculpting with natural wood and a semi-raw finish to form a bent or fallen figure; using metal chain as a symbol of attachment and restraint; incorporating resin and decorative elements to enhance a nostalgic and emotional atmosphere. The technique blends natural and symbolic components to evoke themes of absence and belated recognition

A fallen, bent or passing figure—resting on a cut trunk, bound with chain, beside a dry pine and a symbolic fragment. Neither mourned nor glorified—just the echo of a presence once ignored. *Echo After Absence* commemorates all those unseen in their time, remembered only after they became sculpture. A work about delay, silence, and the sorrow that comes too late.
