Forgotten
The sculpture shows a figure stuck in wild grasses, symbolizing loneliness and disconnection. Made from cement, reclaimed wood, and natural materials, the still figure contrasts with the rough weeds, emphasizing a feeling of being overwhelmed. Each plant seems to wrap around the figure, highlighting nature's role as both protection and confinement. The earthy colors suggest wilderness, and the detailed weeds invite closer observation. This piece reflects a moment of thought in chaos, encouraging reflection on loss, entrapment, and finding one’s place in the world, resonating with the common experience of feeling lost amid life's wildness.
