Bronze, casting

Metaphor sculpture to the famous work of Yevgeny Vucetich (1908-1974) «Bending swords to ploughshares» (1957), installed at the UN building in New York (USA), as well as in the park near the Tretyakov Gallery on the Crimean Wall in Moscow and Kazakhstan. The name of the statue is taken from the Old Testament, its meaning in calling for a peaceful, creative life, where weapons are converted into plows and sickles.
Sokov differently interprets both the name of the work and the meaning of the sculpture
