Luna
Artist Statement:
The moon is a feminine symbol, representing the rhythm of time as it embodies the cycles and phases. It symbolizes immortality, eternity and enlightenment. In ancient Roman religion and myth, Luna is the divine embodiment of the moon. This sculpture is my interpretation of this goddess.
