About the art
Artist statement
According to Verónica Mar, "the sunlight that filters through the trees and gives us that subtle and soft shadow was the first idea of the effect that I wanted to create with the first piece of this collection, a chandelier. At that very moment in late 2014 I also began to create my ethereal organic sculptures symbolizing the union between the opposite energies, Yin Yang. I wanted this symbolism to be reflected in the candle holder as well. Looking for references, I found that in nature it is the Ginkgo Biloba tree that represents this union. The Ginkgo Biloba is one of the most beautiful trees in the world because of its fan-shaped leaves, and its symbolism, providing harmony and balance. That’s what clients get when they acquire a Ginkgo CandleHolder. Each Ginkgo piece is handmade by expert craftsmen in Spain."
