About this artwork
In Western religions and legends, the dragon often symbolizes a creature of destruction (interestingly, in Eastern philosophy, it is considered a lucky charm and a powerful, benevolent being). Since it embodies both (good and evil) and is a fictional character, the artist uses it in this work to represent humanity's fears and dark sides, which often bring chaos and destruction. Primal fears manifest themselves, for example, as fear of failure or…
fear of the unknown—the latter, unfortunately, a recurring and global theme. But even for fantasy lovers, the wall sculpture is simply a battle between dragons. It lends any room a sense of ancient mythology and timeless tension.

Daniela E. Hellerforth studied design and interior architecture. She realizes her art through drawings, paintings, sculptures, and photographs. Her main subjects are sculptural works and "three-dimensional paintings." Her works often have a metallic appearance—a characteristic stylistic device of her REALUSION® brand. They are often melancholic, dark, and occasionally dystopian, reflecting fantasy and mythical worlds and sometimes delving deeply into the world of human fears. Despite all their darkness, her works appeal through their unique aesthetic. The artist is dedicated to nature and environmental protection. Her goal is to trigger emotions and inspire reflection.
She has been participating in exhibitions since 2015 and is represented at art fairs and in collections.
"In my opinion, art has fulfilled its purpose when it reaches people, whether visually or acoustically, and triggers emotions – of whatever kind." (DΞH, 2015)
