Patinated bronze Hypnia over a bed with a view from the side
Bronze Hypnia hanging up over a bed the better to ward off insomnia.

Based on a Classical Greek bronze head of Hypnos, the God of Sleep, in the British Museum, which was missing one wing.

 

Mine is a feminised version, with both wings included, based on those of an Eastern Mediterranean tawny owl, and with one wing folded over the face to be more evocative of being enveloped in sleep.

 

Patinated to look like a marble statue just coming to life and Art Deco in style. The 'mood' of this sculpture definitely changes with the light.
