Intaglio di Chanukkah
14 x 42 x 30 cm
Laser engraved iron
A candelabra, consisting of four concentric circles – is engraved on an iron plate. For the artist, the circle is the complete geometric form, harmonious and essential, with no beginning or end. The circles are connected to each other centrally by a straight line, the shamash. The positive shape thus obtained was placed by the artist at a right angle to the base. Therefore, a metallic allegory was created based on a play of lights and shadows, of positive and negative shapes, developing horizontally and vertically.
