From the creator of this sculpture we read the following:

The meeting with 'Phil Bosmans' is for me the miracle of my life: his sunny smile, his simple honesty, kindness and joyful humor have given me wings, to design a post-stamp under his impulse, and to create our all 'Oase-Manneken'
(the self-portrait of the sweetest man in the whole world and its surroundings).
