The artist, completing the series on the cusp of spring, was influenced by Johannes Gehrts’ “Ostara – 1884” and the legend of the goddess Ostara as interpreted by Jacob Grimm in 1882. Grimm describes Ostara as a deity of radiant dawn and emerging light, a vision that brings joy and blessings. Associated with the season of renewal, Ostara embodies both rebirth and the rejuvenation of hope.Employing direct carving techniques reminiscent of Brâncuși, the artist merges Nordic influences with Romanian folk art traditions, creating a sculpture series that conveys a deep spiritual essence through their distinctive style.
