Afrodite

Afrodite by Tiziana Terenzi

This creation was inspired by the marvelous Mediterranean landscape surrounded by white beaches and high cliffs, that rear up out of the transparent and sparkling waters of the sea around the island of Cyprus, mythical birthplace of the goddess Aphrodite. The beautiful goddess represents the wild and uncontrollable power of love, passion and seduction, capable of uniting and embracing elements of opposing natures, man and woman, strength and kindness, passion and sweetness.

She is capable of enchanting, and of driving hearts to the most unrestrained and unconfessable feelings. Camped around a large bonfire, on the plateau next to the ruins of Paphos, where Aphrodite first appeared, we find ourselves in front of a crystalline, azure sea, enveloped by the persuasive scents and intoxicating perfumes of a lush and wild nature, as seductive and beguiling as the beautiful Aphrodite herself.

Our minds are stunned by so much wonder and our senses let themselves be transported far away in ecstasy, to the lively sound of the wood crackling in the fire.
