Quando uma serpente inevitavelmente ultrapassa as suas escamas, esfrega o focinho numa superfície áspera para rachar a pele velha e literalmente sai rastejando do seu eu passado. Um lembrete em espiral de que superar o seu ambiente atual deve ser um pouco desconfortável.
The coiled snake sculpture is surprisingly heavy for its size, which gives it a nice, solid presence on my shelf. I find myself looking at it whenever I’m stuck on a problem, and it genuinely makes me think about shedding my own frustrations.
I keep it on my desk as a reminder that shedding the old version of myself is supposed to hurt a little. The way the snake is coiled mid-crawl really captures that moment of struggle and release. It's subtle enough that visitors ask about it, and I get to explain the meaning every time.
The coiled snake design is such a clever take on shedding old skin, and the way it sits on my desk makes me think about growth every time I glance over. It’s small but the detail in the scales and posture feels really intentional.
