ABOUT THE WORK

A constant in Orlina's work is the inspiration that the sculptor derives from the forms of nature, the human figure. In this work, the artist celebrates that most erogenous of a woman’s attributes, her breasts (singularly portrayed here). The motif of the uncovered female breast is ubiquitous in art of all ages and cultures. As early as the time of Italian renaissance art the exposed breast appears in many different manifestations.
