In this artwork, the words ‘NO LOVE LOST’ seem to grow as twigs off a larger branch but are in fact cast in bronze. The work is mounted two centimetres from the wall, creating an echo in the shadow of the artwork — a nod to the potential double meaning of the phrase; the common idiom indicates a lack of positive feelings between people, but a literal interpretation could prompt reflection on the enduring power of love. Like many of Valamanesh’s works, NO LOVE LOST ponders love and human connection, leaving interpretation up to the viewer.
