Maria Primolans first sculpture to celebrate the artist and genius of Prince, a piece which the artist has wanted to sculpt for many years. The scupture is inspired by 'Purple Rain' capturing the signature look which so many fans can identify.
The level of detail is much higher than any of Marias other pieces, and clearly shows the progession of her skills and committment to ensure Prince was captured in the correct likeness. The hair looks incredible and very lifelike, it almost looks soft and bouncy even though we know it is clay.
The thin lines of hair for his eyebrows and moustache, the eyes, skin tone, extra detail for his white ruffle shirt and purple jacket and the new technique on the back of the piece shows how hard she has worked on this piece, a clear display of the sculptors very best work.
The sculpture includes a black custom made stand, it has a square base and a bar which fits through the middle of the sculpture to hold it securely for display on any flat surface.
This is edition number 2.

David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust and The Blind Prophet - Double-Headed Sculpture
Regular price£1,150.00
A unique Double-Headed Sculpture created to celebrate the Life of David Bowie.
This year is the 50th Anniversary of Ziggy Stardust! This piece displays the transition from the first to final personna of David Bowie.
Ziggy Stardust (1972-73) - The Blind Prophet (2015-16)
Ziggy Stardust - The most known character created by David Bowie for the 1972 concept album: The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. The character is an alien sent to earth, to bring a positive message of hope in the last five years of its existence. To complete the look of the intergalactic messenger, an “astral sphere” — which represents the celestial spheres in a variety of religious and mystery traditions — is displayed on his forehead. David Bowie played as the character on the tour of the same name, and retired on stage in July 1973.
The Blind Prophet - The Blind Prophet is a character that appears in the music videos for "Blackstar" and "Lazarus" from the Blackstar album. He wears a white blindfold with black buttons over it for eyes. It could be related to fear. Or that being blind and only seeing darkness could relate to death. He has grey pointy hair and black clothes. He has been described as being anxious, introverted, and tormented.
Ancient Inspiration - Janus the two-faced God from Roman mythology, As a god of change, and the transition from past to present to future, Janus is sometimes considered a deity of time. Double-Headed sculptures of Janus inspired this sculpture design, one head facing the past, and one facing the future.
