About the Item
This contemporary bronze sculpture inspired by music is shaped like a heart and was made by David Chamberlain.
The lyrical lush lines of this heart-shaped bronze sculpture were created by the American artist David Chamberlain. Rhapsody can be found in the permanent collections of several notable American Art Museums.
Sculpted from one continuous piece, the highly patinated finish features flecks of turquoise in a dark bronze. Mounted on a wooden base, the sculpture is designed to rotate so that every turn reveals another character.
Chamberlain’s sculptural work is inspired by his love of music as an expressive art form. Each piece is named after a musical term. Rhapsody is a flowing one-movement work distinguished by its free-form style. Edition one of fifteen.
“I’d like to think my work is timeless—not relying on fitting into a certain genre.”
