Handmade Bronze Sculpture “Reflection of Balance”
A dynamic sculpture that combines abstract elegance with the concept of mutual balance. Two figures, shaped in simple lines, stand facing each other in a symmetrical dance: their hands are joined above and below, forming a rhombus, while their legs are raised in stretched curves, as if floating in perfect harmony. The black porcelain stone base emphasizes the sense of proportion and stability.
Material & Finish
- High-purity bronze: The work is solid bronze, cast using the lost-wax technique, which ensures faithful reproduction of the smooth curves and simple form.
- Hand-applied patina: The artist applies natural oxide mixtures, creating deep, golden highlights that emphasize the play of light and shadow on the surfaces.
- Matt protective varnish: Seals the finish, protects the bronze body from oxidation and preserves its natural shine.
Inspiration & Symbols
“Reflection of Balance” draws inspiration from:
- Symmetry: The opposite positioning of the two figures symbolizes the need for mutual support; when one rises, the other follows, and the whole forms a unity.
- Rhombus: The central shape formed by the hands symbolizes the stability and balance that comes from working together.
- Abstract form: The absence of unnecessary details focuses on the rhythm of movement, allowing the viewer to fill in their own interpretation of the dialogue between the two bodies.
