The air shuddered at the rapidly rising sound. Something was quickly approaching from afar, and the closer, the more it became familiar in features and details. It was pitch black raven-old and wise who has seen the time. He landed, folding his broad, heavy wings, and fluffed out with patience in anticipation. In his soulful gaze is read the age-old wisdom.
The deep metaphorical meaning of the sculpture is hidden behind the plasticity of graphic, flowing lines forming a robe of interwoven wings. And the grotesquely expressed beak and crest add ironic accents.
