Description

“Let’s Fly Away” captures the whimsical and weightless feeling of being in love—a moment of liberation, trust, and shared adventure. This enchanting bronze sculpture features a couple soaring through the air, the man holding a red umbrella as if it were a magical vessel, while the woman clings to him with her heart exposed in vibrant red. Their flight takes place beside a tilted lamppost, hinting at a dreamy, surreal escape from reality. The red hearts and umbrella serve as symbols of passion, romance, and protection, while their upward motion evokes freedom, fantasy, and the boundless nature of love.

Maximos blends narrative and emotion through his distinctive minimalist approach, using faceless, elongated figures that transcend identity to tell universal human stories. The sculpture, made of bronze and delicately gold-plated, is grounded on a smooth marble base that contrasts beautifully with the dynamic, upward movement of the figures. The bright red accents—hand-painted with care—punctuate the work with emotion and bring focus to the central elements of love and elevation. With “Let’s Fly Away,” Maximos offers a whimsical yet deeply emotional tribute to those who dare to rise above the ordinary together.
