Being in the moment can be described as a mental state achieved by focusing one’s awareness on the present moment, which has the ability to bring the human mind to a state of complete and utter tranquility. Internationally renowned sculptor Anton Smit explores this concept of living in the moment with “In moment III”, which is available in either a GRP or a bronze sculpture.

Being able to sculpt a state of being in such a powerful manner requires a deep connection of the artist with the message. “In moment III” shows the dexterity and sensitivity with which Smit sculpts; he portrays a female figure focused on meditation. As the viewer, we are invited to engage with the concept of a present moment and are ourselves lost in a moment.

Anton often connects his work to poetry;

“ A line between empowered

and defeat,

of real honesty,

and if you want,

silence

A moment of free-fall

and endless ending ours,

there to be chosen” – M Sallinger

In Moment III, will transform any interior or exterior space to a place of serenity.
