Prison Roman Travertine Sculpture

Prison presents a reinterpretation of the michelangelesque prison motif, specifically referencing the "Awakening Slave." It conveys multiple iconological meanings, including representations of provinces governed by Julius II or symbolizing the arts subdued after the pope's death. The piece also invites philosophical and personal reflections related to the artist’s life and inner struggles. Its textured beige surface enhances the dramatic tension embedded in the figure’s emergence from the rough background. One-of-a-kind piece.
