"Chi dorme non piglia pesci" is a polished bronze sculpture that captures the vibrant energy of patience and opportunity. The figure, caught in a moment of tension and readiness, features a mirror-like surface inviting viewers to see themselves in active waiting — not surrendering, but alert and prepared. Around the figure, delicate silver details sparkle like water droplets or flickers of movement, symbolizing chances slipping away from the passive. Strong and vigilant, the body expresses a balance between calm and determination, telling a universal truth: those who sleep don’t catch fish, but those who wait wisely seize life’s moments.
