Raffaella Benetti

Description
Another enrapturing limited edition bronze sculpture by Italian artist
Raffaella Benetti is Icaro. For the creation of this splendid piece, Benetti
drew inspiration from Icarus, a character in ancient Greek mythology.
According to his story, Icarus tried to fly to the sun with wings of wax.
Blinded by hubris, he ignored the fact that his wings would melt before
reaching the sun. The artwork Icaro consists of a bronze figurine
accompanied by two delicate wings lying behind it. It can be interpreted
as the contemplation of a long journey full of obstacles to overcome.

Description
Celeste is the latest member to join Raffaella Benetti’s
ensemble of bronze ballet dancers called Les Danseuses.
Celeste’s attractive, chiselled facial features, sleek hair
and confident look are so captivating it becomes hard to look away.
The hoop in her hand hints at her skills as a rhythmic gymnast,
which come in useful during her and her group’s ballet performances.
This elegant piece is a limited edition bronze artwork
masterfully cast using the lost wax method.
