Presented is a one-of-a-kind single edition sculpture by female sculptor artist Sherry Rossini. Hand carved by the artist from alabaster stone that was imported from Italy. The base also is carved from the same imported alabaster stone. The sculpture seemingly floats weightlessly but is attached and secured with solid brass rod to the base providing stability. This sculpture can be considered representational as it carries interpretations such as floral, a flower in process of blooming, or representing a new beginning. The work evokes a captivating ethereal energy with soft curvatures and thin petal-like edges. The alabaster has a radiant translucency that when positioned near light one can almost see through it.Â
History: This work Lily has been exhibited in 2022-2023 at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts Museum and Gallery, The Delaplaine Arts Center of Frederick, Maryland, and is now available for private collection.Â
