The Ecstasy, 2001
polyester, glass, steel
104 x 60 x 55 cm
The Ecstasy – one of the first sculptures I created inspired by the yoga asanas. It was inspired by the yoga asanas and tried to express my experience through the composition and conception of the work. A shift in composition towards the inner imagery of feeling in the realization of yoga, along with the principles of figuralism. The work is part of a kind of triptych – a group of three sculptures – The Catharsis, The Meditation, and this particular sculpture – The Ecstasy.
