The Celestial Ascent 2025
As “The Celestial Ascent,” the piece feels liberating and powerful. It speaks to the human desire to rise above circumstances. The “shattered silence” of the ground has been left behind, and what remains is a pure, rhythmic echo of freedom. The horses are no longer running through the forest; they are running on top of the wind.
Artist’s Statement for the Piece:
“In The Celestial Ascent, I explore the moment of transcendence. By anchoring the sculpture in a massive, primordial stone and elevating the equine forms to the very peak of a vertical metal grid, I aim to visualize the soul’s journey from gravity to grace. The work is a dialogue between the immovable past and the unstoppable future—a reminder that even from the heaviest foundations, we are capable of taking flight.”
