"Drifted Thoughts" captures a fleeting moment of introspection and release. The iron figure, adorned in a layered red dress, stands delicately poised as she holds onto a vibrant red balloon that seems to gently tug her forward. The subtle tension between the grounded basalt base and the balloon's upward pull symbolizes the interplay between reality and imagination, grounding and aspiration. The flowing dress and soft curves evoke a sense of lightness and emotional vulnerability, inviting the viewer to interpret themes of longing, hope, and the quiet beauty of letting go.
