Chess is much more than a board game. It is decoded thoughts, actions and methods. It is based on mathematics and psychology, while the element of luck has no bearing upon the outcome.

The heroes we choose, through the qualities that characterize them (courage, kindness, honor, justice, tenacity, bravery, etc.) define, to a great extent, our own ideals. Drawing inspiration from fairytales, poetry and prose, we will attempt to find, create and convey, through sculpture, our own fantastic Heroes. Which hero is hiding behind the words? What would happen if I added a hero into a story that didn't have one?
