"The Memorial for Unborn Children" (2010) sculpture by Slovak sculptor, Martin Hudacek, is a masterpiece that depicts a grieving mother who has lost a child and that child (in translucent form) reaching out to the mother in love. This sculpture deeply touches the loss felt in abortion, miscarriage, stillbirth, and other infant and childhood losses.
Promoting photographic images of the sculpture, or displaying replicas can be a great way to spread the message of Forgiveness, Hope and Healing. The sculpture communicates in ways that words alone cannot. See images below of this sculpture, as well as "The Memorial for Unborn Children II" that includes the father figure
The replica in the photo above is 17" high (18" with the base). Family Life Council has a few replicas available on loan for possible parish use. For more information, please see:
