Mopane Leaf On Silk
Bronze Mopane Leaf
Cast in bronze by Helen Michaletos, this piece holds the shape and texture of a real mopane leaf gathered in Botswana.
Every line and curve is taken straight from nature, preserved in metal. What would have faded on the bush floor is given a second life in bronze.
The mopane tree is known for its resilience, growing in heat and dust where not much else does. That same feeling sits in this piece. Grounded, simple, and quietly strong.
No two are exactly the same. Each one carries its own story.
