This powerful artwork is a modern interpretation of Saint Agatha, the patron saint of women, motherhood and women with breast cancer. The sculpture exudes vulnerability and resilience at the same time, with deep symbolism that touches. The golden halo, in which her name "Agatha" is engraved, gives her an almost divine status. Her intense gaze evokes emotions of courage and perseverance, while the raw image of her opened chest and the breast she holds on a scale confronts and invites reflection.
The inspiration for this work comes from the stories of St Agatha, a martyr who was honoured for her strength in enduring great suffering. This work retells her story with a contemporary look at female strength and healing. The work refers directly to the struggle and recovery of women facing breast cancer, offering an ode to their courage and inner strength.
The mood is intense and mystical, with a message of protection, resilience and transformation. The work is not only a tribute to Saint Agatha, but also a symbol of hope and strength for women facing similar challenges.
With its rich colours and emotional depth, this work is an impressive statement in any interior. It fits perfectly in a space that exudes peace and reflection, such as a living room, library or meditation room. This artwork offers more than beauty; it is a powerful symbol of support and connection.
