Ophelia by Michael James Talbot

“Ophelia” Limited Edition Bronze Sculpture by Michael James Talbot

“Ophelia” was the first piece in my Emergent Collection. When I started on this piece I was thinking of the body and spirit floating, rising above the concerns of life, transported in a stream of dappled light and mist .The inspiration for these effects is taken from light reflecting off moving water onto adjacent surfaces, originally in the enigmatic waterways of Venice. This inspiration has led to an intense and ongoing study of patina effects giving the sculpture a liberating painterly aspect.

The Ophelia design is available in two other scales with the Ophelia Maquette, at 54cm tall, and a Ophelia (2/3rd Life size) version at 175cm.
