Pregnant woman

This 1.5 kg sculpture, measuring 19 cm high, 13 cm wide, and 9 cm deep, depicts a pregnant woman. Carved from a single stone in shades of gray, reddish, and white, this delicate work showcases the figure of a pregnant woman, with a lighter-colored circle at the base of her abdomen alluding to her unborn child.

For this piece, the artist selected a Migmatite stone with gray, white, and red hues, a uniform texture, and veining. Concentric circles are visible on its belly, guiding the eye toward the center and revealing a distinct crystallization pattern that defines the location of the developing creature. The red areas visible in the stone are garnets, characteristic of this type of stone.

The Migmatite was specially selected for this work, from a quarry located in Córdoba, Argentina.
