When I was a child, I would always watch my aunt, Natalia Tsiklauri, as she shaped clay into beautiful, intricate figures. Among them, one statue stood out to me the most—Son of the Sun. There was something mysterious about it, as if it was telling a story, waiting for something unseen.

As time passed, I began to notice similar figures in her work. It was as if they were all connected—like a family, each piece adding to the same untold tale. That realization stayed with me, and now, years later, I wanted to honor that feeling.

Since I couldn’t create these sculptures with my own hands, I brought Son of the Sun to life in digital form. This render is my tribute to my aunt’s artistry and the stories her work continues to tell.
