SCULPTURE
May 16
SUMMARY
In this profound dialogue, Matías explores the essence of the humanbeing and its intrinsic connection to the earth, symbolized throughclay. This exchange reflects on how we are shaped, not only physicallybut spiritually, from the natural elements that constitute ourenvironment and our being. The discussion reveals a vision of humanityas creations formed from clay, with each individual being a divinelysculpted work of art, designed to reflect and embody the qualities ofthe spirit that breathes and lives through us. By acknowledging ourconnection to the earth and clay, we are invited to consider our ownlives as canvases or blocks of clay, ready to be sculpted intoexpressions of beauty and meaning by our own divinely inspiredhands.
