Between Light
A sculpture about light, silence, and presence.
A Memory of Candlelight.
As a child, I watched my mother shape fragile ceramic sculptures often resembling broken eggshells, each one holding a small candle light. In my hometown, her works became quietly iconic. Light lived inside something cracked and unfinished — yet alive.
This sculpture continues that lineage, not as a replica, but as an echo. The candlelight that filled our home became a symbol of calm, warmth, and quiet harmony.
The sculpture Between Light balances on its toes, leaning forward, arms extended — offering light. The body is tense yet gentle, caught between effort and grace. Each hand holds a candle, and the flame becomes part of the gesture: an extension of attention, care, and presence.
The light does not simply illuminate the sculpture—it completes it. The work asks for your participation: to light the candle, to pause, to stay. As the flame burns, shadows move slowly across the body. Through this shifting light, time becomes visible and space is gently transformed. The bronze changes with the moment, and the figure feels momentarily alive.
Candles shape a space. They soften the room, slow time, and invite stillness. In this
work, the solidified body holds the moment and invites you to take part.

Same But Different
This sculpture relates closely to my other works, but differs in that it is designed to hold candles. To highlight this difference, I have chosen to create it in a higher edition, making it more affordable and accessible.
