Artemis

Artemis

Connexion, One Farrer, 2014

Artemis, twin sister of Apollo, appears in Kumari Nahappan’s companion sculpture as a luminous green apple—an emblem of balance, vitality, and renewal. While Apollo represents the science of healing, Artemis embodies the natural rhythms that sustain it: resilience, protection, and the quiet strength of regeneration. Installed within the Connexion development, the sculpture complements its twin while carrying its own distinct presence.

The green apple radiates freshness and equilibrium, its colour evoking growth and restoration. Kumari’s sculptural language remains elegantly pared down, allowing form and hue to communicate the work’s symbolic depth without ornament. Artemis becomes a visual anchor within a space designed for rest and wellness, reminding visitors that healing is as much about harmony as it is about intervention.
