A heavy wood sculpture with a bulging, carved core—reminiscent of Earth’s nucleus—covered with metal chains that resemble ceremonial mourning instruments. *Earth’s Lament* is a symbolic, philosophical, and emotional reflection on planetary grief; a vision of Earth as a sentient, wounded being, mourning the suffering of humanity—its wars, poverty, and moral collapse. The chains are not symbols of oppression but of sorrow, and the dense form represents a heart that weeps from within.
