The Midgard Serpent – Finale!

The Midgard Serpent has been finished and delivered. The polished highlights took out the beast in it and gave it that twinkle in the eye 😉

The Serpent is in my sculpture not yet biting its tail, however, it is already long and fat and bending over to reach for it and to curl around the whole Midgard… For those not too well informed about the Norse Mythology, the Midgard Serpent was the beast whom Tor had to defeat, but having done so, Tor himself died from the wounds that was given him by the beast. The stories from the Norse Mythology are strong and direct, with an outstanding poetical value. I am working intensely with it, probably as a way of searching my roots, and I achieve so much inspiration.

This sculpture has achieved more attention than I had expected, it now even looks like it gets quite serious spinn-offs! Stay tuned, I will post when the decisions are made…
