Do Vassilakis-Kӧnig

Sasso Cosmico

  • 2007
  • Bronze, Steel
  • Exterior: Westferry Circus Gardens

Sasso Cosmico, which translated from the Italian means 'Cosmic Stone', has been installed in the peaceful gardens at Westferry Circus. 

The reflective surface captures the surrounding planting, foliage, architecture, sky and clouds.  In this way, it provides a constantly changing manifestation of the seasons and the weather systems.

Vassilakis-Kӧnig's work is strongly influenced by the mythology and culture of ancient Greece and Rome.  Two more of her sculptures are to be found in the lobby of 40 Bank Street.
