About the Item
"When I grow up I want to be A TEDY BEAR so everybody wants to cuddle with me, I like hugs
When I grow up is an enchanting collection that takes you on an interesting journey, exploring the profound connection between childhood dreams and the realities of adulthood. Through detailled crafted sculptures made from high-fire stoneware, adorned with engobes and glazefired to 1240ºC, this collection captures the essence of youthful aspirations.
Each sculpture portrays a young figure, disguised as their dream profession. From astronauts to artists, firefighters to teachers, these characters embody the limitless imagination and potential children possess. The collection serves as a reflective mirror, reigniting forgotten dreams and hopefully motivating viewers to fearlessly pursue their own passions. "When I Grow Up..." is an invitation to nourish our inner child, to ignite our imagination, and to embrace a future where the possibilities are limitless, whatever age you are!
