Queen of Hearts

2024

60 x 15 x 17 ″

Painted stainless steel with marble base

Queen of Hearts captures the elegance and harmony of connection through two elongated figures standing side by side, each embodying a distinct presence. The figures, one in vibrant red and the other in deep black, are sleek and minimalistic, their forms tapering gracefully as they reach upward. This duality of color represents the complementary nature of relationships, passion balanced by strength, individuality aligned with unity. Koehler’s choice of red and black not only contrasts visually but also symbolizes the duality of love: its warmth and fire, as well as its grounding depth.
