About this artwork
This sculpture is part of a trio inspired not only by the composer’s appearance, but by the character of their music. Form, rhythm and structure are translated into a sculptural language of planes, tension and balance.
Each bust is reduced to a few essential lines and planes, capturing its character with precision and restraint.
A subtle detail on the reverse connects each work to its musical origin.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
A form defined by clarity,… balance and lightness. The composition is more fluid and composed, reflecting the precision and elegance of his music.
On the reverse, a quote often associated with Mozart — “The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.” — is engraved, pointing to the space and sensitivity within his work.
