Description: Melpomène (2021) is a bronze sculpture from Daniel Arsham’s series of reimagined classical deities. Representing the Greek muse of tragedy, this work blends antiquity and futurism, featuring a signature Tiffany green patina that evokes the oxidation of time on an imaginary archaeological artifact. Arsham applies his aesthetic of deliberate decay (“fictional archaeology”), transforming the figure into a symbol of altered memory. The stylized erosion, mineral-like textures, and refined coloration create a balanced composition of power and poetry.
