Monumental Public Sculpture “Unity” — Wire Art Installation in Contemporary Urban Space

 

In contemporary cities defined by speed, verticality and density, public art has the power to introduce a different rhythm.

This monumental wire sculpture, approximately 5–7 meters high, represents unity within diversity.

At first glance, the viewer sees a single head — a unified form rising within the skyline.

Upon closer inspection, the structure reveals dozens of intertwined human figures. Each figure symbolizes individuality, autonomy and personal direction. Together, they create one shared consciousness.

The sculpture is intentionally transparent.
Light passes through it.
Air flows through it.
The city becomes part of the work.

Wire, as a material, embodies connection — flexible yet strong. It reflects the invisible networks that bind us: social, emotional and spiritual.

This project explores how public art can:
• humanize large-scale urban developments
• create contemplative pauses in high-density environments
• symbolize shared identity in multicultural cities

I am open to international collaborations with cities, developers, hotels and cultural institutions.

Unity Sculpture: Contemporary Public Art About Connection and Collective Consciousness

 

This contemporary sculpture is an artistic reflection on unity, connection, and shared human presence.

The wire structure symbolizes the invisible bonds between people — relationships, energies, stories, and emotions that connect us beyond physical boundaries. The openness and transparency of the material create a sense of lightness, allowing the sculpture to integrate harmoniously into architectural and natural environments.

The unified head represents a single spirit, a collective consciousness.
Although each figure inside is different, together they form one whole.

This work speaks about diversity without separation.
About coexistence without hierarchy.
About unity without loss of individuality.

Installed in public spaces, hotels, gardens, or architectural environments, the sculpture becomes a quiet point of focus — a place for contemplation, slowing down, and reconnecting with a sense of wholeness. It does not impose meaning but gently invites reflection.

My artistic practice is deeply connected with themes of mindfulness, unity, sustainability, and acceptance of diversity. I create public artworks that not only decorate space but also transform its emotional and energetic quality.

I am open to collaborations with:

hotels and resorts
architects and interior designers
developers and urban planners
curators and cultural institutions

Sculptures as spaces of pause

I create sculptures as spaces of pause.


For me, art is not about filling space —

it is about opening it.

Opening space for breath.

For presence.

For reconnecting with what is alive inside us.


My work grows from a deep personal and professional journey — at the intersection of contemporary art, embodiment, nervous system regulation and lived experience.



These sculptures are invitations:

to slow down,

to feel,

to remember that balance is not found in speed, but in presence.


I work internationally and am open to collaborations with hotels, cultural institutions and architectural projects that wish to create meaningful, human-centered environments.

READY TO FLY — Public Art Concept Visualization

 

This image is a visualization of a potential public art installation, created from my ceramic sculpture "READY TO FLY" (SEARCH Collection).

The visualization was generated with AI as a conceptual tool, helping to imagine how this work could exist in a public architectural space and interact with people at scale.

For me, this sculpture is not about speed, competition, or constant achievement.

The wings here symbolize balance — a state where life is not driven by endless rushing, but by grounded presence and inner alignment.

READY TO FLY speaks about returning to oneself.
But remembering that true movement comes not from pressure, but from inner stability.

When balance is restored, flight becomes natural.

In a public space, this sculpture could function as a point of pause —
an invitation to slow down, reflect, breathe, and reconnect with one’s own inner rhythm.

It is not only an aesthetic object, but a subtle space for contemplation, healing, and inner recalibration.

I am deeply interested in realizing this work as a public art project and am open to dialogue with:

– curators
– public art institutions
– architects and developers
– municipalities and cultural organizations

If this concept resonates with you, I would be happy to connect and explore possibilities.

Public art can be a reminder not of what we must become, but of who we already are.

Clarity changes everything

At a certain stage in life, something quiet but deeply important can happen.

You begin to see yourself clearly without illusion, without self-deception, without constant inner struggle.


And together with this clarity comes a different way of seeing other people.

You hear their words and at the same time you sense where those words come from.

Not with judgment. Not with evaluation.


Simply noticing: is it fear, scarcity, haste, a need to fill an inner void

or presence, honesty, and inner stability?


In spiritual language, this is often called “awakening.”

In psychological language, it is the moment when a person stops living through trauma-based filters and automatic survival patterns.


In essence, these are two ways of describing the same process.

When chronic tension softens, suppressed emotions are integrated, and old protective strategies lose their grip, the world becomes surprisingly clear.


You begin to sense very precisely where you belong and where you don’t.

Who you want to engage with and why.


Where there used to be “I should,” “I’ll tolerate,” “maybe,” or “hopefully,”

there appears a calm and grounded “no.”


There is, however, another side to this clarity.

You start noticing how many people live in confusion sincerely not knowing what they want, acting from fear, inner conflict, or lack.


And you recognize yourself there too. This is not “wrong”, it is a stage of the human path.

It simply may no longer resonate with where you are now.


As a result, you may feel more alone.

Yet when you do meet someone who lives from clarity -

whether in work, friendship, or intimate relationships -

the connection is rare, deep, and real.


My professional and personal work has been devoted to this transition for many years:

from inner noise to clarity,

from unconscious patterns to conscious choice,

from survival to embodied presence in one’s own life.



What I see again and again is this: it does not have to take decades.

This is not a quick fix or a miracle solution, but with the right approach, clarity can emerge in months, not in 10 or 20 years of searching and repeating the same cycles.


If something in these words resonates with you, it may be because you are already close to this state.


Sometimes, simply recognizing that clarity is possible changes everything.

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.
