ABOUT THE SCULPTURE
This penguin has a fluorescent belly adorned with mandala-style patterns to symbolise the contrast between inner vibrancy and outer simplicity. The black exterior represents the challenges and hardships we often face in life, while the bright, intricate belly reflects the unique beauty and creativity that lies within each individual. The mandala patterns signify harmony, unity, and the interconnectedness of all living beings. It aims to remind viewers that even in the darkest moments, there is potential for brilliance and joy. This penguin serves as a metaphor for embracing one’s true colours, encouraging us to celebrate our uniqueness and express our inner light, no matter the circumstances.
