Simurgh

In this sculpture, the character looks at the Phoenix bird placed in his hand with admiration, hope and curiosity. In fact, what he sees is his own reflection, and he has the hope and courage to rewrite the white page that lies before him. Phoenix, born from Persian mythology, represents divinity, health, life, rebirth and wisdom that we encounter in many myths.
