"A buon intenditor poche parole" (A word is enough for the wise) this dark blue glossy sumo sculpture conveys strength and wisdom. Surrounded by subtle grey butterflies, the piece symbolizes the power of silence, balance, and quiet transformation. The polished finish of the sumo wrestler contrasts beautifully with the delicate butterflies, reflecting a harmonious balance of thought and action. His steady breathing creates a continuous flow of air through his half-open lips, connecting his inner world with the outer forces. His body, strong and expansive, finds harmony with the elements, while the materials that form him transcend into light, rising toward the heavens. Cloaked in deep dark blue, his figure embodies mystery and depth, a figure where butterflies softly land upon him, suspended in the calm blue sky.
