Long before the galleries defined the town’s silhouette, the hills of Versilia were governed by the tinkling bells of sheep. To truly understand this region, one must look past the polished sculpture to the rugged peaks—a narrative of resilience and a deep, tactile connection to the earth. I laid out and sculpted this one hour relief in the beautiful town of Valdicastello Carducci while attending a marble workshop. They have sheep on the property that roam among the sculptors! https://ajinspirations.life/project-eleven/Blog Post Title One-3zaa9-sdm84-2hyd3-w86xa-n475r-m3hy7-bydsk-en8pc monthly 0.5 2026-04-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64fb13bf67fca8489fddd96d/9ceb3ab1-de42-480c-9700-6f0a2560f891/Relief_GoldenHorn2.jpeg Project Eleven - The Golden Horn: Istanbul’s Ageless Harbor - Known to locals as the Haliç, the Golden Horn is more than just a primary inlet of the Bosphorus; it is the very reason Istanbul exists. This scimitar-shaped horn has carved its way through history, acting as a natural harbor that protected Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman fleets for over 2,000 years. I laid out and sculpted this relief from an apartment in the neighborhood of Cihangir. The detail required about a day of work. https://ajinspirations.life/project-eleven/Blog Post Title One-3zaa9-sdm84-2hyd3-w86xa-n475r-m3hy7-bydsk monthly 0.5 2026-03-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64fb13bf67fca8489fddd96d/c5735d35-56dd-499f-b627-610e0bc1c59e/GalataTower_project11.jpeg Project Eleven - The Stone Witness to Empires: Galata Tower - Standing tall over the Karaköy skyline, the Galata Tower (Galata Kulesi) is more than just a great photo op—it is a stone witness to the rise and fall of empires. It has transitioned from a military bastion to a fire lookout, and finally, to the cultural icon of Istanbul it is today. I laid out this quick-sculpt at the tower and put in another hour back at my studio. https://ajinspirations.life/project-eleven/Blog Post Title One-3zaa9-sdm84-2hyd3-w86xa-n475r-m3hy7 monthly 0.5 2026-02-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64fb13bf67fca8489fddd96d/1771430009981-KWSQ8QV9DY48LRIKTEQM/boat_fish_bosforo_proj11.jpeg Project Eleven - Where the Two Seas Meet: Three thousand years of history staying afloat - Solitary, colorful, and impossibly small, these wooden sandals bobbing in the treacherous Bosporus are symbols of pure staying power. Watching a lone fisherman hold his ground—or rather, his water—against the strait's churning currents and maritime traffic is an awe-inspiring sight. It is a living masterclass in tradition, proving that while empires and skylines shift, this quiet, rhythmic heritage remains anchored in the soul of Istanbul. I laid out this quick-sculpt at Galata port and put another 1/2 hour into it back in the studio. https://ajinspirations.life/project-eleven/Blog Post Title One-3zaa9-sdm84-2hyd3-w86xa-n475r monthly 0.5 2026-02-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64fb13bf67fca8489fddd96d/ec17f13e-b51c-4438-b0e8-fc3d3aae68ea/GalataBridgeFishing_Proj1111.jpeg Project Eleven - Galata Bridge Fishing! - Day or night - rain or shine the dedicated fisherman on the Galata bridge are a mainstay of Istanbul!
