Haunting Nude Abstract Figural Modernist Plaster Sculpture and Pedestal Base

About the Item

The modern female figurative sculpture exhibits beauty in the simplicity and grace of its form. The artist manages to evoke the subtle essence of femininity while simultaneously eliciting a mystique of the unfamiliar. This Minimalist form blurs the line between masculine and feminine, human and alien, which further captivates the viewer. Made of plaster with a textured finish, the sculpture itself balances on the black pedestal which is included with purchase. The removable plaster figure is mounted by slipping onto a vertical pipe that comes up through the pedestal. Masterfully sculpted, this form is haunting in its beauty. The maker and date of this piece can only be speculated. Dimensions: 15" Wide x 22" Deep x 71" High Pedestal: 15" wide x 22" deep x 31.5" high Sculpture: 15" wide x 9.5" deep x 39.75" high

  • Chrysalis White Alabaster Ebony Soapstone UV Lighted Metaphysical Sculpture
    Located in Chattanooga, TN
    "Chrysalis" is based on the shape of a tulip bud and handcrafted from white alabaster, ebony soapstone and green fluorite. One might also interpret the bud as a shell or cocoon. This shape represents a vessel for life, an opportunity for rebirth and transformation. A chrysalis is the pupal stage from which a caterpillar transforms into a butterfly. The base of the bud holds a special secret, a single UV LED diode an ethereal glow, activating the stone and acting as a beacon to draw the viewer in a sacred, transformative, space. Day and night. Duality exists within us all. “Chrysalis” is a sculpture and a healer. In its dormant (unlit) state, the white alabaster cleanses its surroundings, draws spirit to you and evokes forgiveness. This can be internal or external forgiveness. The green fluorite stone at center neutralizes negative energy. Press the switch to initiate the UV light. Like a moth to a flame. The light magnifies the stones power. "Chrysalis" was created by multi-disciplinary artist, Jackie W. Hailing from New York, the classically trained artist explores themes around the genesis of life and our connection to nature and one another. Recent work has focused on sculpture in steel, stone, and found materials natural materials. This sculpture is battery powered and operates on a switch.
