This sculpture is about an experience I had at my former job. It seems to me that modern parenting has lost the ability to spark fantasies in children. The sculpture represents the decay/dying of the imagination in children.

The Sculpture is made of colored salt dough, which the children often used to play with.

 

Thanks to Giorgia Ruele for lending me the table for the presentation.
