Bronze, hinge foundry - 58 x 30 x 13 cm
Adam by MIROGI
In the work "Adam," MIROGI revisits the primordial moment of humanity, the one where man awakens to his own consciousness. Sculpted in bronze with dimensions of 58 x 30 x 13 cm, this sculpture evokes both the fragility and the intrinsic strength of the human being.
The body of "Adam," folded in on itself, appears to rest in a position of meditation or repose, but it is also imbued with a palpable tension, as if it were being reborn or pulling itself together after a fall. The subtly defined musculature and protective posture suggest a mixture of introspection and vulnerability. Every line and curve of this sculpture is carefully crafted to capture the emotional intensity of that original moment.
MIROGI, with her knowledge of anatomy and physiotherapy, manages to infuse the bronze with a feeling of living flesh and suspended breath. The patinated surface of the sculpture reinforces this impression of vitality, while offering a visual depth that changes with the light, revealing details hidden in shadow and light.
“Adam” is not just a representation of the human form; it is a reflection on our state of being, a mirror to our own moments of doubt and resilience. MIROGI invites us to contemplate the soul of this man who embodies humanity itself, capturing the essence of what it means to be awake, both spiritually and physically. It is a piece that will find its place in any space, bringing with it a powerful and serene presence, a testament to the beauty of human existence in its purest form.
