Sitting Tara - sign. Martin Klein - Limited Bronze Buddha Figurine

This Sitting Tara bronze figurine by Martin Klein is exclusively limited to 20 pieces. Placed on a base made of refurbished ship’s plank, this decorative bronze figurine portrays a contemporary interpretation of the White Tara. As a symbol of complete purity and enlightenment, this Buddhist character still plays an important role in today’s yoga and meditation teachings. Traditionally, the White Tara belongs to the so-called enlightened beings. Thus, she is not categorised as a typical Buddha, but as a Bodhisattva. Martin Klein uses this traditional material of Buddhist teachings and re-interprets it. The result is a fascinating Buddha sculpture made of bronze that is characterised by its flowing shapes and an impressive delicacy. Klein places the figurine of the White Tara inside a circle of green patinated bronze. The flowing vestments of the delicate Buddha figurine seemlessly devolve into the narrow, pillar-like area that connects the bronze figurine with the wooden base. The smooth, even skin of the White Tara that glows in a reddish bronze shade poses a stark contrast to the otherwise green patinated bronze sculpture, which highlights the bronze sculpture that bears the artist’s signature.
