The author's stone-carving sculpture "Cello" is an allegory of the lyrical, soulful sound of the cello, embodied in the smooth lines of an anthropomorphic image. The music, frozen in stone, immerses you into a lively and mysterious world under a light veil of soft pink quartz. In a skilful dialogue with the stone, its character and natural range of internal textures were revealed, resembling subtle vibrations, sound shimmers and the play of timbres of musical variation. Materials: rose quartz (Madagascar)
