Opera name

CHAISE CRUCIS

Artist

Abel Carcamo

Description

A profound symbolism emerges that transcends the barriers of the physical to delve into the philosophical and spiritual realm. In this work, the cross is not merely a material object, but embodies the essence of faith, resilience, and love amid adversity. Abel does not consider himself a religious practitioner in the conventional sense, yet he demonstrates a spiritual closeness. For Abel, the cross is not only a religious symbol, but a constant presence in his life, a kind of talisman that gives him steadiness and commitment in his daily life. In this interpretation, the cross is an emblem of inner strength and determination; by representing this symbol in an eternal material such as bronze, with striking textures and patinas that contrast over time, the shine appears as something luminous and the black as present adversity.
