Vladimir Filatov is a contemporary sculptor known for his symbolist works. The sculpture “Birth of a Woman” shows how the artist creates emotional depth and complex concepts through simple yet powerful forms. In this sculpture, Filatov addresses the emergence and transformation of femininity, depicting birth not only as a physical awakening but also as a spiritual one.
The sculpture shows a figure in a state of unfolding, as if emerging from a shell or cocoon, which could symbolize the process of self-discovery and the creation of one’s own identity. Filatov’s work combines organic forms with a fragile aesthetic that reflects both strength and fragility. “Birth of a Woman” is a tribute to female strength and the lifelong pursuit of self-realization and identity.
