Infinite lineage, 3

These two candle holder columns were made from discarded oak, carved on a lathe, then blackened with mordant. With a lit candle, the cup becomes the sun; inverted, water ripple-like forms represent a column of water rising. The artistry evokes nature's delicate harmony sustaining all life.
