In this expressive sculpture, Arestakes creates a mythical creature, half woman, half wave, seemingly emerging from a mineral flow. The Mermaid seems to both be born and melt into the material, somewhere between mystery and sensuality. The circular gesture of the head, tilted inward, suggests an inner call or an inaudible melody.
The work captivates with its flowing, almost aquatic lines, contrasting with the rough texture of the stone. It evokes the ancient myth of captivating voices and indomitable feminine forces.
A sculpture that is both gentle and powerful, fascinating with its abstract grace and symbolic force.
