A part of agricultural machinery turns into an artwork. The vertical thrust makes it similar to a magical totem. Spikes of machinery scraps recall thorns on the stems of roses: they aim to preserve the beauty of the sculpture, as thorns preserve the beauty of the flower.

Brajo Fuso makes the framework of this puddle with concrete in one solution, giving a shape close to those of natural puddles, including also the little circular island where there is vegetation.

However, there is no certainty about their real identity, and today the mystery is still unsolved. In any case, the statues are poetic proof of how reality and imagination are mixed in Brajo’s world.

The yellow colour recalls stars and gives the feeling that Brajo brought into the forest the beauty of the sky, using the artistic style of moving sculptures, a typical element of the Surrealism by Alexander Calder.

Walking alongside the puddle, the visitor arrives at the two sculptures of Menco and Marianna. The whole path is scattered with sculptures and objects made with the assemblage technique, typical of Brajo Fuso.
