Artwork description:

At first sight we look at a very habitual creature. We can see ducks every day without noticing what an amazing phenomenon it is. For the ancient people the bird was a sacred object. It was a guide between our world and the others. The shapes of the work reminds us of ancient Egyptian bird sculptures strictly carved from stone. What we see is not just a sketch of a bird, copy or imitation of reality, but it is like a creation of the folk craft of ancient Egypt. The sculpture exists within its own immanent shape.
