The Arrival of Thanatos

$3,000.00

This sculpture is a compelling exploration of contrasting elements and symbolic imagery. The use of chrome-plated steel for the pyramid and weathered handle juxtaposes modernity with antiquity, suggesting a convergence of past and present. The pyramid's placement on a rectangular base, supported by legs, adds a sense of stability and architectural form.

The incorporation of opulent materials like plush purple satin and shimmering gold cord introduces a sense of luxury and allure, creating an intriguing contrast against the industrial steel components. This juxtaposition of materials could evoke themes of mortality and transformation, where the arrival of Thanatos (personification of death in Greek mythology) is symbolically represented by the blending of these elements.

The overall composition conveys a sense of tension and harmony, blending textures and shapes to provoke contemplation about life, death, and the passage of time. The sculpture's design invites viewers to interpret its symbolism and engage with the complex narrative it conveys.
