(Though this poster flinched, and didn’t speak of abortion.)

“The sculptor ‘didn’t anticipate the sculpture getting so much attention, but the reaction has shown him why he was called to create it. "Now I know why.’”
“When the young Slovakian artist embarks on a work, he said he ‘must do much praying,’ and he also asks others to pray for him.”
“‘First is necessary praying,’ he said.”

"Many mothers, women and girls, suffering with post-abortion syndrome expressed to him that they were hurt, listing ways they had tried to heal, but regardless, one thing was always missing.
“‘I need only forgiveness,’ they told me,’ said Hudacek”…
“Hudacek told LifeSiteNews that the answer continued to elude him. So he called upon God again to lead him, and the response he received told him to simply set about creating the piece.” (from article, “Memorial to the unborn inspires Pope Francis in Rome,” in Lifesitenews.)
