About this artwork
The work, inspired by the myth of Persephone, queen of the underworld, transcends Greek tradition to embrace external influences. The result is a figure embodying regal elegance, proud dignity, and an unconquerable will, testament to a strength that resists circumstance. Forged from flat iron and expertly welded, the sculpture was finished with burnt oil and a transparent oil-based varnish, a process that emphasizes the material and lends it an aura…
of antiquity.
