The presented sculpture was invented and made by the sculptor in the second half of 2021. The master makes the latest works in a larger format (for example, previously the height of the sculptures was 16 cm, but now over 20 cm). This makes the sculpture more eye-catching.
The sculptor developed the subject entirely according to his own idea: the subject is original (conceptual) and the details are worked out well.
The idea for the storyline came to the author as he watched his niece. "All their time spend on the phone," was how the author explained the creative idea. It is difficult to argue with the author, because now literally the whole world can fit in one hand - in the phone.
Nevertheless, the author designed the sculpture as always with the author's inherent humor. The title Princess demonstrate to the viewer a certain modern woman ideal, which will go to the modern prince.
