This artwork, made from olive wood and gilded with gold leaf, takes inspiration from the upper portion of “Pomme et Oiseaux” (Apple and Birds). It symbolizes the human desire to push beyond limitations and reach new heights.

The stalk of the apple, which connects the fruit to the bird, serves as a metaphor for the elevation of the ordinary. It represents the transformation of something simple into something greater. By creating a bridge between the earth (the apple) and the sky (the bird), the artist invites us to transcend our limitations and recognize the potential within ourselves to rise and grow.
