This sculpture is influenced by certain events that have really got Italians thinking, sparking a lot of debates and splitting public opinion. It delves into the concept of the living will and the idea that each of us should have the right to decide about our own life and death, especially when illness or accidents leave our bodies trapped in a sort of stone cage. The flower symbolizes the resilience of life; everyone can interpret the solid vessel it grows from differently: is it a support or a burden?
