SHAPING THE HISTORY OF GOLD AND BEESWAX INTO UNSEEN CREATIONS

Michael Gavrieli
The Tears. The Flesh. The Flame. Gold and beeswax carry a historical story that reaches back to ancient Egypt and became inspiration of modern discovery.

The Tears

Beeswax carries the poetry of an Egyptian myth: the tears of the sun god Ra became bees, whose gift was honey and wax.

The Flesh

Pure twenty-four-karat gold recalls the flesh of the gods in ancient Egyptian belief, bringing its radiance into a contemporary creation.

The Flame

Through heat, gold and beeswax enter a shared language of color, texture and light, giving ancient symbolism a new expression.

A Story That Continues With Its Collector

Ancient symbolism takes contemporary form, shaped by a discovery of materials and meaning through lasting relationships with collectors, with the story extending to support the health of bees & pollinators, protect ecosystems, and sustain food that are part of our daily lives.

THREE EDITIONS - THREE HUNDRED ORIGINAL ARTWORKS - ONE THIRD ACQUIRED PRIVATELY.
