Sculptures by ArthurX












Sculptures in Bronze
Out of some wild ancient tribe of prehistoric times
and the only things left over are these sculptures;
that is what these bronzes are.

Do they tell about rites of veneration for the maternal reigning Goddess?
Was she worshiped as the eternal source of life and energy?
Do her staring eyes hold a clue to their attitude to life?

These sculptures are the only answers.

Were these to celebrate the spirit and vivacity of their ancestors?
Did they play big drums and dance around a bonfire
to get into trance and so join in the power of life?

The time has gone by.
New civilisations have come and passed.
Still, no words, just bronzes.
