The Earthen Sculptures of Antonio Massarutto

I found out about him after @olesamhain shared one of his works on her story.  Incredible creations of art made from natural materials.

The Ferryman's End

“The ferryman’s craft lied dead in the water.

Unable to move he can’t reach and touch the other shore. 

Unable to touch he can’t become real, identified, energized and joyful. 

Thus he fades and dies"

"The icon (rather than sculpture) of the Ferryman’s End represents the individual who, mired in sameness, that is to say, in wholly meaningless activity, is losing touch with the real world, personal or general, and is, consequently, experiencing burnout and feeling like he or she is dying"
