About this artwork
"Selene" - stone sculpture
This original granite sculpture is one of the latest artworks of the talented Bulgarian contemporary professional sculptor Ognyan Chitakov, deeply inspired by organic abstractionism, postmodernism and geometry. It is a stunning abstract moon portrait and it's an amazing three dimensional elaborate carving in one solid piece of granite rock. The artist's concept is to create an unique spacial form with the help of extraordinary… maze of tunnels, carvings and details, both in order and disorder and leaving the feeling of fresh air and lightness. The artwork is one amazing contemporary solid stone masterpiece and exquisite modern home décor.
In Greek mythology, Selene is the goddess of the Moon. She is the daughter of the Titans Hyperion and Theia, and sister of the sun god Helios. She drives her moon chariot across the heavens. Several lovers are attributed to her in various myths, including Zeus, Pan, and the mortal Endymion.
