Is it a painting? A 3D-Render? No, this is an actual sculpture. But if you are eager to see it yourself, I have to disappoint you: This sculpture was displayed in Valencia during Fallas. The Fallas festival ended in the night from the 18th to the 19th of March when, like every year, all the sculptures were burnt and the city went up in smoke and flames. This beautiful sculpture was put to show at the main square of Valencia in front of the city hall and is the only Fallas sculpture that was paid for by the city. The other sculptures are collectively paid for by casales, neighbourhood organisations of people who are crazy about Fallas.
