The Design

About Butterfly And Lady Escultura artística

Butterfly And Lady es una escultura en bronce que representa a una mujer adornada con mariposas. La figura tiene los ojos cerrados, lo que sugiere un pensamiento profundo o un estado onírico, mientras las mariposas se posan sobre su cabeza y sus hombros como símbolos de libertad y transformación. La obra está fundida mediante el método tradicional de la cera perdida. Un proceso de coloración térmica confiere a la superficie del bronce una textura similar al mármol, y las mariposas se ejecutan en un material de aspecto dorado para generar contraste. La escultura mide 750 por 495 por 476 milímetros y reflexiona sobre la relación entre las personas y la naturaleza.
