Antoine Bofill "Femme-fleur" Gilt Bronze Lighted Figural Sculpture

This lighted gilded bronze sculpture by Antoine Bofill features a nude woman wrapped around the stem of a calla lily. The women’s feet connect to a concave lilypad that serves as a tray and the lamp’s base. Instead of a spadix at the flower’s center, a lightbulb emerges from the lily. In addition to the woman who drapes her body around the stem are thin attenuated leaves that reach up towards the flower’s bloom.
