The birth of Venus
In my memory, I stood in front of ‘The birth of Venus’ for a long time in Uffizi Gallery. Even though I had seen it countless times in art books, it was still not as stunning as the first time I stood in front of it in Florence.
This candle holder is a combination of the architecture I have seen in Florence, the smooth arches, the towering columns, and the fountains in the park. In this candlestick, I used the visual language of architecture to restore ‘The birth of Venus’ in my mind.
