Enchantment awaits! We dare you NOT to get swept up in Francesca Dalla Benetta's (@fdb_artist) sculptural brilliance while she manifests a girl that is shrouded with a mammoth-sized axolotl/salamander, and - awwww, look! - the child is also proudly displaying a much more 'normal sized' version in her hand!
Did you know that perennially smiling axolotls - which are historically found in the Valley of Mexico's Chalco and Xochimilco lakes - can completely regenerate entirely severed limbs?!?! Pretty remarkable!
This charming bronze figure - part of the Italian artist's series entitled, "Los Niños y Sus Amigos Imaginarios" (Children and Their Imaginary Friends) - symbolizes the youthful resilience, innocence, faith, and authenticity of our much younger selves💓
