Kiki Smith, American, born Germany (Nuremberg, Germany, 1954), Lilith, 1994
Sculpture | bronze and glass
Lilith is a character from Jewish legend, Adam’s first wife, who, because she was created equally from dust, refused to take a subordinate role and was expelled from Eden. While accounts about Lilith vary, most sources agree she became a demon of the night and the air who obsessively sought revenge for her punishment. (via musiquedance)
