Back / My Precious
Background
A playful homage to Gollum and his famous ring, My Precious reimagines obsession on a smaller and furrier scale. This bronze rat embraces a bird skull with unmistakable tenderness, transforming an unlikely object into a cherished prize. The sculpture invites viewers to smile at the peculiar treasures we hold dear and the curious attachments that make us who we are.Material Bronze
