Description

A bronze sculpture of Banksy Artwork titled Diving Helmet Girl on a black marble base. 

Size - 13" height, 6" width, 6" depth. 

A bronze sculpture, titled "Diving Helmet Girl", is a captivating interpretation of a Banksy artwork. This piece depicts a young girl wearing a large vintage diving helmet, reminiscent of deep-sea explorers. The oversized helmet contrasts with her petite frame, giving the sculpture a playful yet enigmatic quality. She wears a simple, slightly oversized coat, with her hand in her pocket, exuding a childlike innocence. In her other hand, she holds a small bird, further enhancing the theme of purity and hope, juxtaposed against the surreal helmet.

The deep bronze finish gives the piece an industrial, aged look, while the smooth, minimalist design adds an air of modernity. Set on a sleek black marble base, the sculpture stands out as a symbol of imagination and mystery, invoking themes of isolation, exploration, and the innocence of youth. This artwork beautifully combines whimsy with deeper social commentary, characteristic of Banksy’s style.
