Journey through the wonders of Luxor
Egyptian sculpture methods guided my hand
During my Egyptian adventure, I met Sayed, a sculptor descended from an ancient lineage of artisans.
In his fascinating workshop near Thebes, ancient tools hang on walls that have witnessed generations of sculptors perfect their craft.
In this magical place, I learned the time-honored techniques of Egyptian sculpture.
Under Sayed’s guidance, I learned to wield traditional tools with precision, connecting with the craft practiced by countless generations before me.
From this incredible experience came my new sculputure called Mujer de Luxor
The sculpture entitled Mujer de Luxor embodies the fusion of ancient Egyptian methods with my contemporary perspective.
Every curve and line has been carefully executed, honoring the techniques taught by Sayed while incorporating my own artistic vision.
This sculpture is a little story of cultural exchange and artistic legacy.
