About the Artwork

Large Contemporary Arch Sculpture, by Irodion Gvelsiani as a fitting Tribute to the ancient Silk Road that inspired this monumental Work. Ideal for an Entrance of Importance or over aroute of significance.

Artist Comment

The artwork draws inspiration from the motifs of the Chinese Silk Road, a historical route that not only fostered trade relations between diverse peoples but also facilitated diplomatic ties between East and West. The Silk Road's profound influence on global culture cannot be overstated. As nations traded goods along its path, they also exchanged cultural ideas, enriching the tapestry of world civilization.The statue is dedicated to peace on earth. A striking sketch portrays two intersecting roads adorned with caravan bells of varying sizes suspended by large chains, offering a compelling vision for a large landscape installation. The sculpture for the landscape will be crafted from metal plates, while the bells themselves will be cast in bronze or other metals, adding depth and resonance to the artwork. Pricing is open to negotiation, and deals can be discussed based on mutual agreement.

  • The ArtParkS Guarentee

    All the sculptures on the website are described by the Artists themselves stating the materiel they are made from and their dimensions. If they are stated to be suitable for outdoors they have a guarentee of 10 years subject to the effects of weathering which will alter their colour and finish over the years unless you give them  regular cleaning and maintenance. For instance Bronze and to a lesser extent bronze resin/cold cast bronze will aquire a green patina, usually rather sought after and all could attract moss  lichen and a greeny pollen especially under trees which should be removed regularly with warm water and washing up liquid.
    Iron and steel will oxidise(rust ) and this falls outside our guarentee.
    Organic materiel like wood, bark willow is variable and depends to a great extent on where it is sited and you should discuss any guarentee direct with the Artist as this too falls outside our Guarentee.
