Sculpture dedicated to the LGBT community in Puerto Vallarta is ready
|
The majority of Octavio Gonzalez’s life has been devoted to creating bronze sculptures. Many of these works, which reflect his love of animals and the natural world as well as the personal connection they have with people, were displayed in Puerto Vallarta.
Realizing a figure dedicated to the LGBT population in this region is one of the most significant challenges of his career, very different from the work for which he has previously been recognized, but one that will open new doors for him. |
