Princess Tuvstarr sits despairingly at the edge of the dark forest pond. The fairies have taken her crown, the Mistress of the Forest her dress and finally she has lost her necklace in the water. At the edge of the forest pond, she remained to this day. You can glimpse her spirit in the flower named after her - Tuvstarr. John Bauer's iconic pictures of Princess Tuvstarr were published with "The Tale of the Moose Bull Skutt and the Little Princess Tuvstarr" by Helge Kjelli in among elves and trolls in 1913.
Since early childhood, Helle Bang has been inspired by the beautiful mystery of nature. From the girl's childhood fascination around the Limfjord to the artist's eternal source of inspiration and creation. In nature there is both heaven and earth, energy and harmony.

The sculptures are handcrafted from scratch in clay inspired by John Bauer's famous fairy tale world and cast in bronze in a unique edition of ltd 8.
