Reaching the sky

White marble sculpture depicting a graceful woman with arms extended upwards, symbolizing aspiration, freedom, and connection with the divine. Carved from pristine marble, the figure’s fluid lines and elegant posture evoke a sense of serenity and strength, as if she is reaching for the heavens. The smooth, polished surface of the sculpture highlights the purity and timeless beauty of the material, while the intricate detailing captures the femininity and power of the subject.

This piece was created for a family tomb in Heidenheim an der Brenz, Germany, where it stands above the inscription “Meine Zeit steht in deinen Händen” (“My time is in your hands”). The gesture of the raised hands further reinforces the spiritual message of surrender, trust, and transcendence.
