The Memorial of Unborn Children II
Wrocław 1st of October 2015
The work on the sculpture for Poland is successfully finished. The artpiece was installed on the place. In the city of Wrocław they decided under the patronage of the mayor to publicly bury unborn children. In this case it is concerning spontaneous abortions and the children who used to get disposed with the rest of biological waste. The piece as a tombstone this time includes a man as well. The work is based on the story of The Memorial of Unborn Children I by Martin Hudáček. The figure of mother is though new. She touches the ground on which she kneels with one of her hands. Casual position of her body even stronger expresses her desperate pain. She hides her face in her right hand and tilts to her husband who folds her to himself with his right arm. His amazed look is reaction to their child who appeared to them as ghost. Scared and amazed father with his right hand reaches the baby with the figure of 4 years old.
As the baby of the first version of The Memorial of Unborn Children was about the age of two the author gives a unique chance to see his sculpture to grow.
