A small terracotta figure stands quietly, holding an open vessel while remaining connected by a delicate thread to a suspended sphere. Neither fully held nor completely released, the sphere exists in a state of suspension, echoing the way we move through life—between memory and destiny, certainty and uncertainty, what has been lived and what remains beyond us.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRather than defining what the sphere represents, the sculpture leaves that meaning open to the viewer. The connection is universal, yet its meaning is deeply personal. The vessel held by the figure is equally significant. Empty by design, it becomes a space capable of receiving experience rather than offering certainty.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCreated as part of Cristina Gabriela’s ongoing exploration of witnessing, presence and the unseen dimensions of the human condition, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeld in Suspension\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e invites us to contemplate the invisible connections that shape our lives and all that remains beyond our understanding.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTerracotta, aluminium mesh, acrylic, volcanic texture, wire and mixed media.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFigure: approximately 30 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSuspended sphere: approximately 15 cm diameter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOverall dimensions vary according to installation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCertificate of Authenticity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis artwork is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity issued by the artist.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShipping\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProfessionally packed and shipped worldwide.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe artwork is carefully protected to ensure its safe arrival.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cristina Gabriela","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44253644718169,"sku":null,"price":2400.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/5676\/0409\/files\/IMG-2799.png?v=1785354397","url":"https:\/\/cristinajoelleart.com\/products\/held-in-suspension","provider":"Cristina Gabriela","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
