"Light and Energy" project- Three Dimensional wax sculpture final piece

Three dimensional final piece consisting of 5 wax rings stacked on a light box. The base of each ring was glass and, like the previous experiment, I melted the crushed bits of wax solidifying each structure and imitating the intense amount of heat created from the sun and the effects it can have. Each layer was elevated with thick white candles, allowing gaps for the light to pass through.
The hanging feathers are also made out of wax with the help of a mould I created. By suspending them at different heights around the sculpture with fishing wire from a halo type wooden ring, the viewer gets the impression that the feathers are falling, conjuring up almost holy or spiritual imagery.
The light box measures 70cm x 70cm and the piece altogether measures a height of 160cm.
