The Design
About Butterfly And Lady Kunstskulptur
Sommerfugl og Dame er en bronseskulptur som avbilder en kvinne prydet med sommerfugler. Figuren har lukkede øyne, noe som antyder dyp ettertanke eller drømming, mens sommerfugler hviler på hodet og skuldrene hennes som symboler på frihet og forvandling. Verket er støpt med den tradisjonelle voksutsmeltingsmetoden. En termisk fargeprosess gir bronseoverflaten en marmorlignende struktur, og sommerfuglene er utformet i et gullignende materiale for kontrast. Skulpturen måler 750 ganger 495 ganger 476 millimeter og reflekterer over forholdet mellom mennesker og natur.
