ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Cats, fish, and other animal-related sculptures were common subjects his father often carved, reflecting his skill and artistic interests. By creating his own version of a cat sculpture using wood chips from his father's work, the artist honors his father's influence. The mosaic combines traditional and contemporary techniques, symbolizing their shared artistic journey and the values his father passed down, such as attention to detail, respect for materials, and dedication to the craft. The sculpture serves as a tribute to his father's mentorship and a reinterpretation of his legacy in a modern context.
