GIFT OF LIFE
The sculptural composition expresses the idea of the value of life as a gift from Nature. The fire of loving hearts ignites the flame of new life. This miracle, the sacred creativity of Nature, is a mystery to this day – it is perceived as a Gift from Heaven. The Fire Cup is also a symbol of the joint creative energy of a man and a woman, caused by love.
All life manifested in space is fire, the basis of the life flame is love. Only love makes the human heart burn, only true love can be rewarded with the Gift of Life. The sculptor decides images in national colors, conveys the beauty, originality, and warmth of the Ukrainian people.
