In one of the 10 rules of the Decalogue, Milton Glaser, one of the greatest creatives of the twentieth century, quotes Gerald Edelman, a renowned professor of brain anatomy, who says that making an analogy between the human brain and computers is simply pathetic. According to Edelman, the brain is more akin to an overly lush garden, constantly growing, continuously receiving seeds, and perpetually sprouting new life.
Inspired by the concept of "sprouting," I created my first artwork titled "My Garden." In this piece, I depict a bust of a woman, with a plant sprouting from the top of her head, yet confined within an open birdcage.
