BELLADONNA

Mosaic-stainless steel sculpture

Description

BELLADONNA Atropa belladonna – in use medically since ancient times, this solanaceous herb is among the most dangerous poisonous plants in Europe and was named after Atropos (inevitable, from greek mythology). In Renaissance Italy the pupil-dilating effects of the poison Hyoscyamin led to the name "bella donna" (Italian: "beautiful woman"). Half plant and half woman the sculpture is a symbol of duality, tension and beauty in life. This 2 metres high sculpture is the work of over 2000 hours and made mainly from Murano glass. The colours reflect the symbolic drama of life, from the calm blue-green through the ominous purple to the vibrant red and vivid bright yellow. Shining stainless steel edging underscores the shape of the sculpture, combining both ancient and contemporary art forms.
