De Engelse kunstenares Helaine Blumenfeld vond haar inspiratie voor dit kunstwerk door te kijken naar spelende kinderen op het einde van een zomernamiddag. De wisselende schaduwen van de kinderen en het langzaam veranderende licht van de ondergaande zon, bieden een mooi schouwspel van licht en donker. Helaine heeft die indrukken blijvend weten te vangen in het kunstwerk Meridiana. In het Italiaans betekent Meridiana zonnewijzer.

Blumenfeld maakt abstract-organische werken voornamelijk van marmer, terracota en brons. In 2007 won zij als eerst vrouw de International Sculpture Prize “Pietrasanta e la versilia nel mondo”.

‘Meridiana’ is een schenking van het HvA cultuurfonds aan de gemeente Ede.

The English artist Helaine Blumenfeld found her inspiration for this artwork by watching children playing at the end of a summer afternoon. The changing shadows of the children and the slowly changing light of the setting sun offer a beautiful spectacle of light and dark. Helaine managed to capture those impressions permanently in the artwork Meridiana. In Italian Meridiana means sundial.

Blumenfeld makes abstract-organic works mainly of marble, terracotta and bronze. In 2007 she was the first woman to win the International Sculpture Prize “Pietrasanta e la versilia nel mondo”.

'Meridiana' is a gift from the HvA culture fund to the municipality of Ede.
