"Domum Mori" is a striking sculpture that captures the paradox of strength and vulnerability. The title, Latin for "Dying House," reflects the meditation on the state of America—a nation of immense power and resilience, seemingly impervious to external threats. However, the work embodies the notion that true danger lies not in external attacks, but in the internal decay that gradually erodes a once mighty foundation. Through intricate details and symbolic elements, the sculpture portrays America as a fortress under siege from within, weakened by divisions, societal issues, and a loss of shared values. The piece serves as a poignant reminder that the greatest threats to a powerful nation often come from its own internal struggles.
