This original solid granite sculpture is one of the latest artworks of the Bulgarian national famous contemporary professional sculptor Ognyan Chitakov, deeply inspired by cubism, dadaism and postmodernism. It has an authentic natural charm, mixed with the delicate artistic signature and skills. It brings its beautiful craftsman attention to high fashion detail, precision and top quality, all hand carved in one solid granite rock. 
Granite is a coarse-grained igneous rock with up to 60% quartz by volume. That's why it is massive, hard and tough, and that's why it forms the basement of all land continents on Earth. Its structure carries the formula of the planet, speaks about its ancient history and formation. It keeps the information. As the sea and the water drop are one, the Earth and the granitic rock are one too. And as granite material is uncompromisingly hard, the artist's concept has to be as uncompromisingly clear too. Otherwise granite will always resist to its new form. There has to be a dialog between the artist and the material. This artwork is based on this concept. It is one extraordinary solid stone masterpiece and valuable modern home decor.

Ognyan Chitakov is a contemporary professional Bulgarian fine art sculpture artist. He has master degree of education at the National Academy of Arts in Sofia. He lives and works in the beautiful Bulgarian town of Asenovgrad, where his home and studio are based. Sculpture is his main way of thinking, his way of communication, his way of living and his complex look at life. Sculpture gives him the freedom to create and makes his ideas visible. He loves sculpture because it gathers all in him - form, space, function, architecture, design, engineering, technology and above all Art – both fine and sculptural. Among all materials used to shape sculptures his passion lies in stone. Stone is ancient and sacred, and it is already part of his nature. Ognyan Chitakov is nationally famous now for his extra large figurative solid stone sculptures, abstract statues and geometric monuments, which can be seen in many galleries, banks and public places all over the country. Most of his artworks are already part of private collections in Western Europe, Middle East and the U.S.A. "The stone material is alive and has a soul. I never ignore it and its gravity as well. I try to give each artwork the feeling of lightness." Ognyan Chitakov
