Have you ever thought about having a UNIQUE and 100% handmade magical creature to enchant your home? An art that you not only see, but also touch and interact with. My sculptures are poetic creations, made over many months, with the aim of reconnecting us with the power of magic through contemplation and creativity.
LIL PUMPKIN BUDS 🎃
Pumpkin sprouts/buds are small, still-germinating creatures from the plant-elemental kingdom. These miniature beings bring harmony to the environment in which they live and lead the space to a biophilic design, reconnecting the human being with the natural world.
As much as they live in pots, the creatures don't need watering, just treat them with affection and they'll be energized.
They emerged from the spell-cultivation of the Witch of the Forest, mother of all Pumpkins, a solitary witch who cast a spell on pumpkins to come to life and keep her company. She lives alone in a wooden house hidden among the mossy trees. There, mystery surrounds her presence and many myths have been passed down by word of mouth about the Witch of the Forest who creates animated life where none exists. When she conceived the Pumpkins, she didn't expect so many to succeed. But, of course, she was happy with the spell she had worked so, so well. Pumpkins are a kind of nocturnal magical creature. They tend to walk in groups and help each other when they encounter danger, so their motto is “never walk alone where you don’t know the totality” – it’s not about the fear of walking alone, but about the power of friendship, of being able to count on one another. the others to venture into new extraordinary and unknown places.
Each Pumpkin Sprout is unique and handmade without the use of molds. The inner base of the creation is made from reused materials such as plastics and papers! .Inside the pot there is sphagnum moss, the same one used for growing certain plants. Pumpkin sprouts can also be removed from the pot!
The buds do not come with a name and a history of their own, they are still very young, but the guardian person who acquires them can name them as they feel.
