// Paloma Varga-Weisz’s Spike is a small, evocative bronze sculpture that presents a dog's head adorned with a ruffled collar, reminiscent of traditional portraiture. Measuring only 10 cm in diameter, the piece captures intricate details in the dog’s facial expression, giving it a dignified yet approachable presence. The ruffled collar around the neck lends a theatrical, almost regal quality, perhaps referencing the style of historical portraiture where animals were sometimes depicted with human attributes. Limited to an edition of 100, Spike embodies Varga-Weisz's unique approach to merging whimsy with classical art forms, imbuing the sculpture with personality and charm.
