Salvador

Salvador captures a figure from the streets of Salvador, Brazil—an elongated body perched awkwardly on a horse too small, flip-flop dangling as his posture twists almost impossibly. His solemn expression, paired with the scene’s unlikely proportions, gives the work an undercurrent of humor.

The abstracted patterns in his hair and the off-balance composition heighten the sense of incongruity, rendering the ordinary moment into something both comic and profound. In bronze, Salvador becomes less a portrait than a study of contrast—solemnity within absurdity, dignity within imbalance.
