About this artwork
The artist created this work for a series of Celtic images. This Celtic knot, also known as the triquetra, symbolizes infinity, complexity and simplicity at the same time. The Celtic Christian church used it to represent the Holy Trinity. Today it is assumed that the symbol was a sign for the Celts of the unity of the divine - the wholeness of birth, life and death. The snake was used as a symbol here because for the Celts it was also a sign of destruction…
and renewal at the same time - because it can "renew" itself infinitely often by shedding its skin. The Celts believed in a soulful nature. Sirona, the goddess of healing, was depicted with a snake. Unlike the biblical snake, it stands for positive energy and power.

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)
