A pair of candelabras inspired by conversations I wish I could have had with my parents, not as Mother and Father, but as the people they were before they became mine. The candle burns as an offering to curiosity, understanding, and the passage of time. The wax that remains becomes a trace of a conversation that exists somewhere between memory and imagination.
The Night We Stayed is a fragmented candelabra inspired by a conversation I wish I had with my father. Though fractured, each piece continues to support the whole, much like the people we become through love, loss, and forgiveness.
