Bronze sculpture, 'Roots'

This powerful piece by Lucia Prata features an elegant form that eloquently communicates the artist's ideas. Lucia uses the human form to represent a member of a culture, the legs twisting subtly together to become a root, symbolizing the origins of the subject. Lucia believes that each person should be proud of his or her cultural origins, a concept she conveys in the strong posture of her figure. A fine piece with which to enrich any environment. Bronze with black granite base. Clean with damp cloth; do not use chemical cleansers.
