(Article: BW_2025_00517)
The meditating figure, whose silence feels like peace, stands silently – as if the universe itself is holding its breath.
Yet within her rages an unimaginable storm that has lasted for millennia.
The burden of an entire civilization weighs on her breath, and every second of meditation reflects the final struggle, where a single mistake could lead to catastrophe and the destruction of the world.
The tears streaming down her face are the price for peace and freedom.
This is sacrifice.
The bloody tears flow not from fear, but from unbearable inner tension.
Do we understand the true value of this?
This figure does not meditate for herself, but for a free, civilized world.
She becomes a symbol of collective sacrifice and carries a burden that can tear the soul apart.
She embodies the archetype of the guardian people and takes responsibility for others who drown in the indifference of everyday life.
This is a people chosen by fate to bear the burden of the world.
They know: civilization is not based on chaos, but on freedom.
Behind them lies an entire universe of human feelings, longings, and sufferings.
Their blood is the price of freedom for us all.
Shed blood so that an imperfect world can exist in civilized freedom.
Their meditation is a reflection of this freedom and the deep connection of all living beings.
Every moment of meditation is like the last agonizing meters of a journey, where the smallest mistake threatens the downfall and collapse of the entire free world.
In this dance of light and darkness, life and death, she becomes the bridge between humanity and the universe.
In this act, we recognize the meaning and necessity of our integral place in the complex symphony of existence.
The works will be completed by the end of October 2025.
