Nenuphar Double Ecran

In Egyptian myth, the sun is reborn each morning from a water lily: the flower opens at dawn and closes at dusk, and it was from its corolla, they said, that the star first rose on the first day. Chrystiane Charles has cast leaf and open flower in bronze, then raised a stem that bears a brass shade. The light falls on the chased plant. The whole movement goes from water toward sky.
