Casting this piece in marble recognises the solidity of this image of my brother, ‘set in stone’ and engraved in my mind.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith this interest of exploring the bond between me and my brother in mind, this singular piece grew into a series of sculptures of my twin brother and me. This series aimed to tie together the range of mediums, subjects, and styles I used in all my final pieces. Bringing in mythological and artist inspiration from Coderch and Malavia, seen in my earlier sculpture \u003ci\u003eStoic Nymph. \u003c\/i\u003eSuch references can be noticed in the idealised smooth finish of the figurative sculpture, which possesses an element of surrealism. Themes, and symbolisms of childhood, and the relationships I grew up among, from my \u003ci\u003euntitled\u003c\/i\u003e oil landscape painting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI also combined themes that I previously investigated, such as memory and family relationships. The main sculpture of the series manifests my twin brother at an age before we grew apart. This version of him I can only ever see in old photographs and videos, this pure and innocent depiction of him manifests how I perceive this version of my brother now I am older. The longing looks in his eyes shows how he knows what will fall upon him in the future, and how our relationship will never be the same. \u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"saskia cierach","offers":[{"title":"Bronze resin","offer_id":56492656656724,"sku":null,"price":4250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Oxidised bronze resin","offer_id":56492656689492,"sku":null,"price":4250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Carrera marble resin","offer_id":56492656722260,"sku":null,"price":4250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/4953\/3012\/files\/ll.png?v=1753296366","url":"https:\/\/saskia-cierach.myshopify.com\/products\/memorial-of-a-memory","provider":"saskia cierach","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
