With the wedding season in full swing it gives us time to reflect on the important aspects of life: friendship, partnership, love and marriage. This sculpture ‘Apart we exist, together we are whole’ by Kate Newlyn may be a mere 6" tall but it carries great meaning.
Kate’s inspiration for this sculpture came from a trip to Ephesus, where rocks and boulders split by earthquakes and weathered by time, offered up images of figures. One such boulder stood out from the others suggesting that of a loving couple; two parts of one still standing together.
The image also carries a resonance of the Chinese Yin/Yang concept; the coexistence of two opposites. In the light the “Whole” can be seen as a single entity, the wholeness of the individual, the perfect harmony of balanced opposites to which we all aspire. This is the first bronze Edition of 50.
