Electryone / Alectrona

Artist: Alexandra Denisa Nicusor-Iancu

Electryone / Alectrona si the Greek goddess of sunrise. She was the daughter of Helios and Rhodos, and sister to the Heliadae. Her name derives from the Greek word Alektor, which means “rooster”, or man’s waking sense, and from the word Elektra, which means “amber”, the color amber, the sun’s color.

The piece represents our center, our fire, our capacity to contain, to hold, to nourish.
