This piece is an edition carefully produced in collaboration with Mexican-American artist Alexis Zambrano, based on his cast bronze and brass sculpture, “Cicada Cluster”, 2020. Cicadas represent personal change, renewal, rebirth and transformation. They inherently symbolize what we once were (nymph) and all the glory we can become (adult form).
Every spring the trees at his studio in Mexico are inhabited by these beautiful creatures, emitting their positive frequency through their song. Alexis’s work has been exhibited in museums, galleries and cultural centers in Belgium, US, Mexico, Phillipines, Peru, Italy and Chile. He currently lives and works in New York City.
