Kotinos – Wreath

This is a bronze interpretation of the Olympic wreath made especially for the Kerasis Competition during the 1990 Olympic Games. Despina drew inspiration from Ruskin's story The Crown of Wild Olive, in which he condemns the human depletion of nature, to create this well thought out bronze Möbius strip adorned with olive leaves.
