Andres Lementino: Picasso, Snake
Le-men-tino
The natural patterns of the marble mimic the snake’s sleek, muscular motion—its body curving with life-like grace, as if caught mid-glide across stone or sand. The stone’s smoky greys and earthy browns lend the snake a grounded, ancient presence, as though it were a guardian of sacred places. Its eyes are inlaid with turquoise, gleaming brightly against the dark, muted tones of the marble. The turquoise brings a sense of alertness and spiritual energy, offering a striking focal point that captures the viewer’s gaze and gives the snake a mysterious, intelligent presence.
Running along the snake’s back is a striking inlay of diamond-shaped motifs—a repeating pattern of turquoise, coral, and mother of pearl.
-
The turquoise diamonds offer a cool, sky-blue brilliance symbolizing protection and connection to water and spirit.
-
The coral inlays bring vibrant red-orange tones, representing life force, vitality, and grounding in tradition.
-
The mother of pearl adds an ethereal shimmer, catching the light with soft iridescence—suggesting intuition, transformation, and spiritual insight.
Snake (Chitdola): Snake sheds its skin. This is a powerful symbol of our need to discard old ways, patterns, and perspectives. Snake meaning is that of alchemy, i.e. that which is negative may be transformed into something positive.
