“The feather I drew is inspired by the famous work The Seven Works of Mercy by Carqavaggio. The feather is light, it writes, files, saves the lives of human beings in difficulty on the wings of the painted or sculpted Angels. Desire to rise from the heavy gravity of the earth towards the infinity of the sky.”
