Green Peacock presents Owen Mlungisi's interpretation of avian majesty through the luminous medium of green opal. This abstract sculpture transcends literal representation, instead distilling the peacock's essence into a contemporary art form that celebrates both the bird's inherent elegance and the stone's remarkable optical properties. The artist's refined carving technique exploits green opal's translucent qualities and natural colour variations, creating visual movement that mirrors the peacock's characteristic display of plumage. Subtle veining and depth within the stone add layers of complexity, rewarding sustained contemplation from varying angles. Rather than depicting anatomical precision, Mlungski captures the psychological presence of the peacock—its confidence, grace, and commanding beauty. This work embodies the convergence of natural beauty and artistic vision, creating a meditation on elegance that transcends cultural and temporal boundaries.
