Dionysus
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This sculpture aims to invoke a connection to Mount Parnassus through the use of stone as primary material. The figure is made out of hundreds of individual pieces of granite which is a representation of Dionysus' relation to chaos and disorder but at the same time the huge figure as a whole is an expression of his nature as a god
