Gilbert Lonjose: Alabaster, Snake
Lon-jose
This piece, carved from soft alabaster known for its warm, peachy hues, highlights the natural patterns of the stone which create a sense of fluidity and movement reminiscent of a serpent in motion. The striking contrast provided by vibrant turquoise eyes injects a captivating focal point into the design, symbolizing protection or wisdom depending on the context. Such artwork is not merely decorative; it serves as an exploration of materials that have been revered since antiquity, bridging contemporary artistic expression with ancient traditions.
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.
