Description
RELIC is a piece built on a contrast between the hard skeleton and a soft, glowing growth. At its center, a chain constructed with bold joints creates a metal, spine-like structure. This rigid, ancient-feeling skeleton represents the "essence"—a solid core that safeguards the vital spark. This heavy skeleton acts as a base that gives life to something organic. From the hard joints, branches grow out like living organisms. The light bursts from inside the metal like a powerful life force coming straight from the marrow. These soft, glowing branches are the living parts of that protected core reaching out into the world. RELIC brings the contrast of bare bones and a living thing to life.
