Mazda Discovers - Season 3, Episode 4 : Marble sculpting in Greece

Michelangelo once said : "I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free." Sculptors have followed these words for centuries, revealing beauty through patience, precision, and a deep connection to their craft. In this episode of Mazda Discovers, filmmaker Erik Hedenfalk travels to Naxos, Greece, to meet Tom von Kaenel, a sculptor who transforms raw marble into works of art. As he carves, he listens to the stone—allowing the form to emerge rather than forcing it into shape. It’s an approach that mirrors Mazda’s own design philosophy. Like a sculptor, Mazda’s Takumi craftsmen shape every curve and contour with intention, ensuring that beauty and function exist in perfect harmony. Mazda Discovers is a journey into craftsmanship. From master artisans to cutting-edge creators, this series explores the passion, precision, and human touch that elevate craft to art. #MazdaDiscovers #CraftedInJapan #Naxos #Greece #Takumi #craftsmanship
