Description

“Hold My Heart Forever” by Maximos is a tender and symbolic portrayal of love, unity, and the shared commitment between two souls. The sculpture features a man and a woman standing on opposite sides of a delicately curved red heart, each holding one half as if bringing it together. Their minimalist, elongated forms suggest a quiet elegance, emphasizing emotional connection rather than physical detail. The open space within the heart shape speaks to the vulnerability and openness required in love, while the vibrant red heart acts as a striking focal point, symbolizing passion and devotion. The piece beautifully captures the idea that love is not just about holding onto someone, but about meeting in the middle and nurturing the connection together.

Maximos’ artistic approach is deeply rooted in simplicity and symbolism, using stylized, gold-plated bronze figures to convey profound emotions through posture and form. The smooth, polished surfaces of the figures reflect timeless beauty, while the striking red heart introduces a visual contrast that draws the viewer’s eye to the essence of the sculpture. Resting on a refined marble base, the artwork is balanced and grounded, reinforcing the stability of love and commitment. Through this piece, Maximos masterfully captures the delicate dance of giving and receiving love, making “Hold My Heart Forever” a significant and poetic work of art.
