About the Item
Amaranth and raspberry coloured glass sculpture, referencing the idea of the sensual nature of a pomegranate, the seeds nestled in a bronze base and casing. Vamvakas Lay uses pomegranate imagery, often combined with bronze, to explore the ancient symbol of Christ, as well as Greek heritage.
"Pomegranate series is an exploration of the cross culturally recognizable symbol of the pomegranate. My interest is based in my Greek cultural heritage. Pomegranates of various materials are found in most households as amulets of good fortune, abundance, and fertility. The symbol is linked to the Classical Greek myth of Persefone and the fruit that she brought from the underworld. As a result, pomegranates and pomegranate seeds can symbolically be linked with the unconscious and the spiritual. Pomegranate, as one of the Ancient Greek pagan symbols is still in use in Modern Greece and can be seen as a reminder of the common thread that connects and interweaves the past with the present." - Catherine Vamvakas Lay
