PUBLIC ART: creating a space where a person can slow down, feel, and remember themselves.

 

This image is a visualization of one of my sculptures created by ai imagined as a large-scale public artwork.


For me, public art is not about monumentality or decoration.
It is about presence. About creating a space where a person can slow down, feel, and remember themselves.


This figure speaks about balance — about the moment when effort is no longer driven by exhaustion, but supported by inner wholeness.
When we stop forcing movement and allow life to flow through us.


I see these works as sculptural anchors for gardens, parks, campuses, healing spaces, and private territories — places where art becomes a quiet companion rather than a statement.


The sculpture exists as an original ceramic work and as a concept adaptable for public or private art projects in different scales and materials.


I am open to conversations with curators, architects, institutions, and private partners interested in realizing such projects — artworks that invite reflection, inner reconnection, and sustainable presence.

You Need Two Wings to Fly: How an Injury Changed the Meaning of a Sculpture

When I began working on this sculpture, I was thinking about willpower — about the ability to move forward despite limitations.

Initially, the idea was simple: a human figure capable of flying even with one wing. A metaphor for resilience.

But during the creation process, I injured my hand and was forced into stillness. That experience changed everything.

I realized that willpower alone is only one wing.
The second wing is our nervous system, our health, our inner state — the invisible foundation that allows effort to become flight rather than struggle.

This sculpture became a meditation on balance and integrity.
The figure is grounded, not dramatic — because true transformation does not come from tension, but from restored wholeness.

Using AI, I later created a short video where the sculpture finally takes flight. For me, this was not just a visual experiment, but a therapeutic gesture — a way to witness what happens when we allow ourselves to become whole.

The work now also exists as a public art concept — inviting reflection on how societies, leaders, and individuals define strength and success today.

The sculpture is available on my site.

Ready to Fly: Can Urban Art Restore Our Internal Wings?

We live in a world of constant motion, yet many of us feel "grounded." As an artist and neuro-somatic guide, I’ve spent years exploring how our nervous system reacts to stress. Often, we get stuck in a "freeze" state, where our energy is locked, and our wings feel heavy or non-existent.

But there is a bridge between freezing and flying. It is Strategic Slowness (Slowing Down).

When we slow down, we finally hear ourselves. We shift from survival to the "Ready to Fly" state.

This public art concept, evolved from my ceramic sculpture, is designed to be a "therapy in the city." It’s a visual anchor that reminds every passerby: your wings are not lost, they are just waiting for you to breathe.

I believe that modern urban spaces need more than just buildings; they need "healing points" that return people to their essence.

I am looking for partners and visionary developers to bring this large-scale installation to life. Let’s create spaces that inspire people to fly again.

Contact me for collaboration.

CREATOR No.10: COMMANDMENT - conceptual oil painting

CREATOR No.10: COMMANDMENT
Oil on canvas, 2025
From the TRUTH Collection


This work explores language as form, structure, and consciousness.
A deep blue head, constructed entirely from typographic elements, becomes a symbol of the Creator — not as an external authority, but as a shared, collective state of being.

The inscription “We are all ONE Creator One Spirit” functions as both visual architecture and contemporary commandment. Words here are not decorative; they shape perception, responsibility, and awareness.

COMMANDMENT reflects on unity, equality, and our shared role in creating the future.
It invites the viewer not to believe — but to remember.

Finding yourself... in silence, in calming down.

From the outside, it may look like I am doing nothing.

But in reality, I am doing something very deep.

I am stopping running.

I am stopping selling myself cheaply.

I am stopping going against my body, my child, my truth.

I am no longer proving.

I am no longer surviving.

This phase looks quiet.

Almost invisible.

But it is a profound transformation, where a person reclaims their value, time, and inner freedom.

From this silence, a new form is born.

A more honest one.

A more sustainable one.

And yes it takes time.

The clay sculpture is titled "Finding Yourself"

The sculpture depicts a horse bust, carrying within it a flying female figure. Their forms merge into a single movement, symbolizing the tension between unity and independence, attachment and release.

Part of the completed SEARCH collection (2016–2022), this unique sculptural work reflects the artist’s personal journey toward awareness and unity.

You say you love art. But what does it mean?

 

Many people claim: “I love art.”

But what does this statement mean today?

For many, “loving art” means admiring the same historical names - Picasso, Dalí, Da Vinci, Botticelli. These artists are important, but this admiration exists in a safe, distant museum space. It doesn’t require engagement, curiosity, or participation.

Most people who say they “love art” have never purchased even a small original work.

They don’t follow contemporary artists, don’t explore new exhibitions, and don’t participate in the living cultural process.

They buy cars, phones, clothing, dentistry, and services at full price, but when it comes to art, suddenly the value becomes negotiable:

“€1000 is too expensive.”

“Maybe I’ll find something for €200… or for free…”

This reveals something deeper:

People love the idea of art, but not the responsibility of engaging with it.

Loving art is not about admiring museum icons.

It is about allowing art to live in your space, to shape your identity, to challenge and transform you.

Contemporary art carries the voice of the present.

It reflects who we are now - our consciousness, our struggles, our evolution.

As an artist, I explore unity, awareness, and the divine nature within each person through sculpture and painting. My work invites viewers to look at the world not through the eyes of the ego, but through the eyes of the Creator.

If we say we love art, perhaps it is time to ask ourselves:

Do we truly engage with it?

Do we support it?

Do we let it become part of our lives?

This is how culture moves forward - through awareness, participation, and the courage to experience art beyond the museum walls.

Why Most Artists Work for 1 Euro per Hour (And How I Raised My Prices to 5–20k)

I want to speak openly about something almost every professional artist knows, but very few dare to say out loud.

Most artists are dramatically underpaid.

Let me give you a real calculation.

When my artworks cost 500–3000 euros, and I deducted:

• 50% gallery commission

• 24% taxes

• materials

• studio rent

• production costs

• time for photography, documentation, uploading, marketing

• exhibition and promotion expenses

• years of education, research, spiritual exploration, and artistic development

…I realized I was earning 1 euro per hour.

One. Euro. Per. Hour.

Would you work for 1 euro per hour?

No professional in any field would tolerate this. Yet artists do. Not because their art has no value, but because they are taught to undervalue themselves.

And also because our society undervalues art and the people who create it.

Yes, “great” artists in museums are celebrated and auctioned for millions, but they are usually no longer alive.

Living artists, who still need to eat, live, work, research, and create, rarely receive recognition or fair compensation. So neither artists value themselves, nor does society value them.

The truth: low prices are not “humility.”

Low prices are disrespect and self-disrespect.

They send a message: “I am not a professional. My work is a hobby. My time doesn’t matter.”

And then we wonder: Why does the world not respect art? Because many artists don’t respect themselves first.

The uncomfortable truth in the art world

If an artist sells large original artworks for 500 euros, or even 1000–2000 euros, then one of these must be true:

They are not a full-time artist.

They produce work extremely quickly and superficially.

They are unaware of their actual costs or they are afraid.

Their work lacks depth, research, intention, and is treated as decorative.

Harsh? Yes. Necessary? Also yes.

A meaningful artwork for me takes:

• 1–2 months to create (and present even longer)

• years of artistic development

• emotional, spiritual, conceptual investment

• technical mastery

• curatorial presentation

• professional communication

This is not décor. This is not “just paint.” This is intellectual, emotional, and spiritual labor.

This is why artists are often forced to either lower quality, or take a second job to support their art, or find other ways to financially survive while creating.

Meanwhile, in Ireland, the government now provides a minimum salary for artists - 1500 euro per month support - because they understand that culture is a national treasure. But in most of the world, this isn’t the case.

So I raised my prices. To 5–20k euros.

Not to be “expensive.” But to be professional.

To honour the value of my time, my mind, my research, and my vision.

These prices may seem high to some, but they do not represent “luxury.” They simply cover my actual expenses and provide a modest salary for my labor.

For me, this is the beginning of an honest energy exchange with the world and with my collectors.

Collectors who understand art do not buy “cheap work.” They invest in:

• rarity

• concept

• transformation

• the artist’s worldview

• depth and meaning

Cheap art cannot carry this value. It is not collected - it is consumed.

My art is a reflection on consciousness, on unity, on remembering who we are as the Creator. This work is not mass-produced. It cannot cost 500 or 1000 euros. Doing so would be a lie to the work itself.

Artists need to hear this:

If you want the world to value your art, then you must be the first one who values it.

Raise your prices. Stand by your vision. Create deeply, honestly, consciously.

And I want to ask fellow artists: How do you feel about this? Do you believe your work should cost more? How do you deal with the pressure to undervalue yourself?

And I want to ask collectors: How do you see this issue? What do you value in an artwork?

If you are a collector, curator or art professional who wishes to explore my latest works, commissions or collaborations, feel free to reach out directly.

Art deserves respect. And we, as artists, deserve it too.

One Language for All: Art as the Bridge Between Science, Religion, and Philosophy

 

"Between Earth and Heaven", clay sculpture, 2020, by Elisaveta Sivas

We all speak of the same truth — science, religion, philosophy, and art. Different languages, one essence: spirit, matter, and the creative force that unites them. My sculptures, the Heads of the Creator, are portals of this unity, inviting us to see through the eyes of Creation itself. Humanity’s future lies not in separation but in remembering that we are the bridge — the living axis between energy and form.

Humanity has always searched for meaning. Religion spoke of God, the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. Philosophers spoke of essence, form, and movement. Physicists wrote equations where energy becomes matter through the speed of light squared. Eastern traditions drew the circle, the square, and the triangle, while Leonardo placed the human figure at their intersection.

All these voices, though scattered across time and space, speak of one and the same principle: the trinity of being — spirit, matter, and the creative force that unites them.

And that third element, the unifying axis, is the human being.

The Forgotten Unity

For centuries, each discipline developed its own language. Religion created myths, philosophy worked with concepts, science produced formulas, art revealed metaphors. But in protecting their own territories, they often forgot that they were describing the same truth.

The truth is simple: energy becomes matter through movement, through consciousness, through us.

Whether we speak of divine spirit, quantum fields, or waves of the brain — the essence is one. It is the eternal dance of unity, presented and explained differently depending on the language chosen.

My Artistic Mission

In my sculptures, especially the Heads of the Creator, I explore this principle.
The eyes are open to invite the viewer to see through the perspective of Creation itself. The opening at the back is not emptiness, but a portal through which spirit enters. And inside, on the axis, is the human — the very link between energy and matter, between invisible and visible.

As an artist and a spiritual mentor, my mission is to remind humanity of this unity. My art is not about division but about synthesis. It is a call for artists, scientists, philosophers, and spiritual seekers to realize:

We are speaking about the same truth, only in different languages.

A Call for Integration

Now is the time to bring these voices together. We do not need more walls between science and spirituality, philosophy and art. We need bridges. We need spaces where formulas and prayers, brushstrokes and equations, mantras and concepts meet each other and recognize themselves as mirrors.

My art is one such space. My sculptures and paintings are not just objects — they are invitations to dialogue, portals of unity, catalysts for remembering who we are.

Because ultimately, we are the Creator in human form. Through awareness, we translate energy into matter, and spirit into life.

I am open to collaboration or dialogue. Learn more about my art and contact me directly through my site.

🌍 Why Conceptual Art Is an Investment in the Future — Not Just Decoration

Art has always been more than beauty on a wall. Today, the art market reflects a global shift: collectors and institutions are no longer investing only in form — they are investing in ideas.

🔹 Decorative art is created to harmonize with interiors and respond to aesthetic trends.
🔹 Conceptual art is created to influence thought, transform society, and expand consciousness.

When a collector acquires a conceptual artwork, they are not just buying a sculpture or a painting. They are investing in:

✨ A philosophy that resonates beyond generations.
✨ A vision that reflects the cultural energy of our time.
✨ A statement that positions them as a participant in shaping the future.

My sculptures, especially the Head of the Creator, are not about surface beauty — they are about awareness, unity, and the healing of collective trauma. This is why I see art as a global energy field, where each work contributes to shifting humanity toward greater consciousness.

For collectors, this means: owning conceptual art is owning a part of this transformation.
It’s not a decorative object — it’s an asset of meaning, a legacy of values, and a force of influence.

🌟 Art is the future currency of ideas. And those who invest in ideas, invest in humanity’s next chapter.

From Intuition to Awakening: The Human as the Bridge of Creation

"Between Earth and Heaven", clay sculpture by Elisaveta Sivas, 2020

Between Earth and Heaven is more than a sculpture — it is a revelation of humanity’s role as the bridge between spirit and matter. Across religions, philosophies, and even Einstein’s physics, the trinity appears as circle, triangle, square; as energy, mass, and light. This sculpture embodies that universal truth: the human as the living axis where invisible energy becomes visible form.


When I sculpted "Between Earth and Heaven" in 2020, I only felt its meaning intuitively. A head, serene on the outside, yet inside a figure suspended on a fine steel line — reaching upward and downward, as if connecting invisible worlds. At that time, I thought it spoke of humanity caught between realms, hanging in the fragile space between life and death, spirit and matter.

Only later, after my awakening in 2022, I began to see with clarity what my hands had shaped long before my mind understood it: humanity is not trapped between. Humanity is the bridge, the very passage through which spirit becomes matter.

The Ancient Language of Trinity

Across cultures and religions, the idea of three-in-one appears as a universal symbol. The Christian Trinity — Father, Son, Spirit. The Hindu Trimurti — Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva. In Taoist philosophy, “The Tao gives birth to One. One gives birth to Two. Two gives birth to Three. And Three gives birth to all things.”

In Zen philosophy, this trinity is explained through form: the circle, the triangle, the square. The circle as spirit and eternity, the triangle as connection and direction, the square as the grounding principle of matter. Together, they construct the cosmic order.

This triad is not merely symbolic — it is the architecture of existence itself.

Einstein’s Formula as Metaphysical Allegory

Even modern physics carries this hidden trinity. Einstein’s famous formula, E = mc², is not just a scientific equation — it is a metaphysical revelation.
E (Energy) is spirit, invisible potential.
m (Mass) is matter, the tangible form.
c² (the squared speed of light) is the movement, the force that transforms energy into matter.

And here lies the revelation: the human being is that very movement, that catalytic principle. Through intention, desire, and awareness, we direct energy and allow it to take shape in the material world.

We are not passive spectators. We are the active force of creation.

Humanity as the Axis

In my sculpture, the stainless steel wire piercing the head is not a thread of suspension — it is the axis mundi, the cosmic column that unites heaven and earth. The figure hanging inside is not caught, but flowing: channeling the movement from above to below, from invisible to visible, from energy to form.

This is the essence of humanity. We are the bridge — not in stasis, but in motion. Not imprisoned between worlds, but embodying the eternal cycle of transformation.

Spirit enters us, passes through us, and takes on form. Through our consciousness, thoughts, and actions, the intangible becomes tangible. The infinite becomes finite, only to return again to the infinite.

A Completed Chapter: SEARCH

"Between Earth and Heaven" belongs to my SEARCH collection (2016–2022) — a chapter of profound inquiry, intuition, and transformation. Each sculpture from this series is a metaphysical allegory, created at a time when I sculpted questions more than answers.

Now, looking back with the clarity of awakening, I see these works not just as artworks, but as prophecies of what was to come in my own evolution. The SEARCH period is now closed — and each sculpture remains a rare testimony to that transformation, never to be recreated again.

Final Reflection

The triad — circle, square, triangle. Spirit, matter, movement. Energy, mass, light.

It all converges in us, the human beings. We are not trapped between heaven and earth. We are the axis of creation. We are the formula, the trinity embodied. We are the bridge through which the universe continues to create itself.

Why Every Progressive Brand Needs Its Own Sculpture: From Prestige to Legacy

In today’s world, where markets are oversaturated with products and services, true distinction comes not only from innovation or design — but from symbols. A strong symbol, embodied in sculpture or public art, becomes more than branding. It becomes heritage, prestige, and cultural recognition.

🏛️ History shows it clearly:

Paris and the Eiffel Tower — an engineering project turned into the eternal symbol of France.

New York and the Statue of Liberty — a gift that became the icon of freedom worldwide.

Dubai and Burj Khalifa — not just a skyscraper, but a statement of ambition and modern power.

Apple’s headquarters designed with monumental art installations — where architecture and art reinforce the brand’s philosophy of innovation.

Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris — a cultural institution that elevated the fashion house into the realm of contemporary art and legacy.

Great nations, visionary cities, and iconic brands all understood: art is not decoration — it is identity.

✨ Why sculpture matters for brands today

It signals luxury and exclusivity.

It communicates values and vision without words.

It becomes a destination point — people don’t just see a brand, they experience it.

It creates cultural capital, placing a company on the same level as institutions shaping history.

In a time of conscious consumption, art is also a bridge between commerce and sustainability. A sculpture is timeless. It doesn’t pollute, it doesn’t become obsolete, it adds value with every passing year.

🌍 My sculpture heads are symbols of sustainable future

To own a conceptual sculpture today is to go beyond aesthetics.
It is to align your brand with:

Harmony rather than exploitation.

Unity in diversity rather than division.

Creativity and awareness rather than consumption without meaning.

To have a conceptual sculpture associated with your company is to say:


We are not just part of the market. We are part of the future of humanity.

It is a choice of prestige, but also of responsibility. A choice that makes a brand not only recognizable — but unforgettable.
