Ginkgo Androgyn
Bronze sculpture details
Gingko is a dioecious tree: there are male and female varieties, which are difficult to tell apart merely by looking at them. Thus, Bodirsky sculpts her personified Gingko as an elegant and yet androgynous figure.
Edition in bronze, cast using the lost wax technique, chased and patinated by hand.
