Roots Suggested Retail: US $964.95 Bronze sculpture, 'Roots' by Lucia Prata Artist Bio & Reviews I learned about everything... watercolor, gouache, oil, acrylic and sculpture - the art form which most impassions me." View other items by this artist 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.

Mine, titled 'Line', is about 12 pounds including the black polished stone base, and the plate itself is about a quarter-inch thick. It is an elegant small-scale artwork, one very much at home with my collection of limited-edition Minimalist prints. If Richard Serra had ever done something small, mounted on a tiny stone block, this might be it. High praise indeed, since Lucia's work is at least as "alive" as any of his monumental ones!
