Dariusz Zielinski - I’ll Fly Anyway - BRONZE unique

Believe in your own potential.

I’ll Fly Anyway is a sculpture about courage, optimism, and determination. The rhinoceros—a timeless symbol of strength and resilience—is given wings, reminding us that the greatest dreams do not require the world’s approval, only our belief in ourselves.

It is a story about people who dare to try, even when others say something is impossible. After all, every great flight begins with the decision to believe that it can happen.

This sculpture inspires us to push beyond our limits, face the future with hope, and remember that strength of character, combined with courage, can lift us higher than we ever imagined.

I was born on 1975. I’ve been engaged in sculpture since 1998. I would call myself a self-taught, though my work has been greatly influenced by an educator and sculptor, Jacek Kozłowski. Meeting him deserves to be called “the moment” of my life.

In my work I attempt at displaying delicacy, fickleness, etherealness, and motion. Hence, perhaps, a number of my sculptures are disproportionably long – as they become apparently light thus, barely reaching the ground. I strive to avoid limiting myself to one manner of shaping the figures. I like experimenting with proportions and seeking for ever different way of deforming the reality.

I think it’s vital for every sculpture to present a story. First, I have a subject and then I find some shape for it. I believe it’s partially connected with the fact that I’m a graduate from the Academy of Special Education.

I co-operate with art galleries in Warsaw, Copenhagen, Bryrup (Denmark) and Arnhem (The Netherlands), Malmo(Sweden).
