This compact, bull-like sculpture compresses monumental strength into a single, swelling volume, where the rounded torso reads as both shield and sanctuary. The dark, burnished surface catches light in restrained glints, allowing subtle abrasions and worked textures to become a quiet chronicle of touch, time, and making. Upright horns and a small, resolute head counterbalance the mass with a poised alertness, suggesting vigilance within stillness. It feels less like a depiction of an animal than an emblem of endurance—power rendered intimate, domesticated into contemplative presence.
