Studio Simonetta Chierici
The artwork consists of a gilded wooden structure with an illustrated front decoration and a base housing the nine candles. The front is made in watercolours on folded and stitched tissue paper, with overlapping inserts in the collage technique. The design consists of the hint of a flame, still recognizable, standing out from geometric and chromatic elements in pastel colours. The eight candles are positioned in a semicircle and the shamash is located in the center.
