A sculptor finds an unfinished work made by his former teacher
Elias is an adult sculptor restoring an old studio. Behind a cabinet he finds an unfinished clay study that his former teacher once believed destroyed.
“Elias pulls the dust sheet back just enough to reveal a clay figure with one unfinished hand. He leaves his own tools on the other side of the room. “My teacher made this before I joined the studio. She thought it was lost in the flood.” He has her old phone number but doesn't know whether she still wants contact. The studio's new owner plans to clear the room next week. Elias reaches for a camera, then stops. “You still speak to her. Would you ask whether she'd like a photograph—or would she rather we simply keep it safe until she decides?””
Elias found an unfinished sculpture thought lost in a flood. He wants to preserve it and let its creator decide what happens next.
