Nature is the matrix of Duy Anh Nhan Duc's artwork. A constant search for alliance and osmosis to present a different vision of plant kingdom. “Through my work, I intend to capture the unique allure of vegetation, to transcribe the emotions it arouses in me and to stage it in the narrative it brings to my mind.” In his workshop, Duy Anh Nhan Duc smoothly transforms dandelion, clover, poppy, hydrangea, lichen… he gathers during its walks. He turns them into artwork that stops the cycle of time and unveils the poetry of the moment's delicateness. Sailing between the awareness and the beauty of the ephemeral, revealing the meditation by nature, Duy Anh Nhan Duc ceaselessly plunges into the living beauty.
Through "Dandelion Light" the artist stops the cycle of time and unveils the delicate poetry of flowers. The present lot highlights one of the most fragile and elusive plants: the dandelion. The molecular and organic sculpture is underlined by gold plated brass. This lot is sold together with a certificate of authenticity from Duy Anh Nhan Duc.
