Archangel

A sculptural presence suspended between ascension and decay, where sacred form is transformed into a radiant artifact of tension and permanence.

This piece, standing approximately 45 cm high, is conceived as a floating relic, deliberately suspended to break its connection with the ground — denying stability and reinforcing the idea of transcendence, or perhaps exile.

The figure, reminiscent of a fallen or altered archangel, is treated with luxury chrome and gold finishes of exceptional quality. The surface is intensely reflective, almost liquid, capturing and distorting light in constant movement. These finishes are not applied for ornament — they redefine the form, turning it into something beyond flesh, beyond stone.

The wings, heavy and imperfect, suggest weight rather than flight. The body, partially eroded and reformed through metallic layers, exists in a state of transformation — as if divinity had been forced through matter and left suspended in time.

This is not an angel in grace.
This is an angel after impact.

Every fold, every distortion, every reflective fracture has been worked manually to create a tactile and visual depth that shifts depending on the viewer’s position. From one angle, it appears sacred. From another, it becomes something darker — something unresolved.

A figure that no longer belongs to heaven,
yet refuses the ground.

Poetry:
They cut the wings
but left the shine

so it could remember
how close it once was
to light
