"The weightless Emigrant's Mother"...moves, is in levitation, perhaps even dances. She does not miss her old pedestal: she becomes alive and rises to meet the definitive encounter with infinity. A miracle beside the sea, a transcendent call from beyond. The bronze is filled with warmth and life, outlined in yellow and brown. The breeze that embraces her body has, at last, freed her from her earthly anchor and transports her to her final destiny.
