Description: This sculpture portrays the cosmos as an incomplete, exhausted circle—its frame no longer whole. Within this fractured universe, a dense tangle of branches, roots, and fragmented forms unfolds. The title *Weary Cosmos, Unaware Man* reflects humanity’s inability to grasp the depth of disorder in a world it falsely believes it commands, while the fabric of existence itself wears thin.
