SELLER

“The Sponge Seller” is, for me, a return to a quieter world, where work carried dignity and every gesture mattered.
In “The Sponge Seller,” I meet those figures who labored with patience, shaping their days through
steady hands and honest effort. The figure is not simply a craftsman, but someone who listens to the sea, gathers what it offers,
and treats it with respect. Each sponge holds traces of salt, sweat, time,
and a quiet pride in making something useful and real. His work is humble, yet it contains a profound truth: value is born from persistence.
These figures may fade from our streets, but they remain within us,
like tides that always find their way back.
