As we walk through the streets of Silves, Algarve, Portugal, I am struck by a statue that captures the intricacy of the human body.
From a distance, it looks like a smooth and seamless figure, but as I get closer, I notice that it is made of metal screws and washers. Each piece is carefully arranged to create the shape and texture of muscles, bones, and skin.
I marvel at how the artist used such simple and mundane materials to create such a complex and expressive work of art.
It makes me think about how life is full of hidden details that reveal themselves only when we pay attention.
