Bronze universal dancer carrying Life as a tree of Light where the fragility and the short-lived meet a heap of spirals of transparent energy crystallized by colored recycled glass joined by iron and lead threads.

“The image is the visual eye open to the Spirit, it becomes a reflection of the Interior ; microcosms & macrocosms, shadows & lights ... My research in this visual direction is where the alchemy ... the material metamorphoses, the alloy of the fire ... of the water ... of the air ... of the Earth ... of the metals is a never ending story ...”  Maru
