Description from the seller
Surrealist Pop Sculpture "Buddha’s Inner Mind" – Emerald Skull Edition
3D-Printed Conceptual Opera – Meditative Face in Grey Cement and Emerald Green Metalized Heart
Immerse yourself in a work with profound philosophical and aesthetic impact with this extraordinary conceptual and Pop Surrealism sculpture. The piece reinterprets the duality between spiritual illumination and the transience of life through a strong contrast of forms, textures, and chromatic finishes.
Artistic Concept, Details and Finishes
Conceptual Duality (Spirit and Vanitas): The sculpture depicts the serene face of a Buddha split vertically into two halves. The central opening reveals his “inner self”: a meticulously detailed skull, wrapped by snakes and reptilian creatures embracing the cranium and the orbits, echoing the classic Vanitas theme and impermanence.
Material and Color Contrast:
The Outer Hull: Made of matte stone/cement gray with a finely rough texture, giving the Buddha figure the solemn look of an anciently crafted statue or a monolithic relic.
The Inner Heart: The skull and the snakes feature a spectacular emerald green metallized/satin finish, with iridescent reflections that catch the light from every angle, creating a magnetic and modern focal point.
Relief Details: The reptiles’ scales, the skull’s anatomical reliefs, and the Buddha’s peaceful expression are printed in extremely high definition, ensuring extraordinary visual sharpness and tactile richness.
