Python Generics: Call method of generic type

Question

I am creating a generic type Translation which contains a list of TextSegments.

Inside the generic Translation I would like to access one of the generic type's methods (TextSegment.example()). TextSegmentType.example() throws the following:

AttributeError: 'TypeVar' object has no attribute 'example'

How can I access the example method?

Minimal example:

from __future__ import annotations

from abc import ABC, abstractmethod
from typing import TypeVar, Generic, List


class TextSegment(ABC):
    @staticmethod
    def example() -> TextSegment:
        pass


TextSegmentType = TypeVar("TextSegmentType", bound=TextSegment)


class Translation(Generic[TextSegmentType]):
    text_segments: List[TextSegmentType] = [TextSegmentType.example()]  # = Field(example=TextSegmentType.example())


instance = Translation[TextSegment](text_segments=[TextSegment()])

In the full implementation there are multiple classes inheriting from TextSegment, each overriding the example method:

class TextSegment(ABC):
    # @abstractmethod
    @staticmethod
    def example() -> TextSegment:
        pass

class TextSegmentConcrete1(TextSegment):
    @staticmethod
    def example() -> TextSegment:
        return TextSegmentConcrete1()


class TextSegmentConcrete2(TextSegment):
    @staticmethod
    def example() -> TextSegment:
        return TextSegmentConcrete2()
